Color dilemma

[Silver R/T]

So my car originally is AA1 silver, however I like many other colors. It's just so hard to decide which color to paint it but I like some reds ie Tor Red, then some blues esp blue Mica's that are out on new cars. I saw "daytona" today and it looked nice in that Tor Red, really makes me want to paint my Charger that color. I like other silvers as well, stock AA1 looks just kind of plain gray to me.

Stay with the silver.

Stay with the silver. 

I agree, silver with red tail strip looks awesome.

[Sublime/Sixpack]

Find a silver you like and go with it.

[Charger1970]

I agree, stick with the silver. 

[Ghoste]

Properly polished up and in the right light it will hardly look like any gray you've ever seen.

My color silver will look sick with a red stripe. If you want the paint code pm me for it

There were many worse colors than silver back then. If mine had been silver from the factory I would gladly have stuck to that rather than the baby-poop green mine was.

I'll go against the grain here, sorry not a fan at all of silver. EVERY new car and truck I see is silver. It's WAY too common and it's just plain boring to me (if silver isn't boring, tell me what you think a boring colour is then?). My wife put's it best "It's just a grey car". Whenever grey is present, it needs colour. Spice it up! Go with a colour. I know red and orange are common and overdone in a way too, but it's better than silver.

Silver is sexy...Dark Blue rocks!

Silver with a black top black rump strip, very nice. Also not to many factory silver cars, like the Q5s. If I ever get a 68 would love it to be silver.

[nakita7]

I'm obviously the only person here who doesn't like silver on cars! Oh well 

Look at it this way...if he goes with another colour, the next guy who buys it can restore back to original...and that could be you! 

[Ghoste]

It's not about what was original, metallic silver is just a great choice. 

[Silver R/T]

Silver does look good in the sun but so do many other colors. I kinda wish it was non R/T and puke green from factory, I really wouldn't feel bad about changing color then.

You can always sell it and get a green base model.

Original silver cars are in the AWESOME category.

If you do not like it, please consider trading for a car you do like vs. painting it something else.

Stay with the silver. 

I agree, silver with red tail strip looks awesome.

  yep agreed paint it the original Silver    

[BrianShaughnessy]

I tend to agree the 68 silver is a bit gray.   I'm not much of a purist so I'm not gonna yelp about original colors because after all there's so many more choices now.   It's not even like you've got a choice about using the original formula / blend of paint anymore since it's probably illegal and unless you're personally stuck on staying stock color or building a trailer queen there's no need to limit yourself.



Personal preference... even the legendary Silver Bullet was painted with corvette silver (68 IIRC) - let your conscience be your guide.

Unless you are going for 100% original, Paint it any color that will make you feel good when you sit behind the wheel. Don't paint it any color that later on you are going to wish you had picked a red or blue. If you are hesitant about it now, It's a lot of work and expense to change it to what you wanted in the first place later down the road... Just my

Welcome to my world decisions decisions! UG

The grass is always greener on the other side........

You have the factory silver and don't want it, yet most Charger owners would love to have it.

My car is that fugly '68 gold (if any gold '68's look nice, it is probably not factory gold, and if folks say "nice car", it is the car they are talking about, not the color)

I would give my left one for a silver car.  Yeah, I could paint it that color, but why add another silver car to the road, that is not original?


This silver one is nice.

The gold, not so much.

[greenpigs]

T3 for me and it's not getting that color again as long as I own it. I plan on using Q5 or something similar(read cheaper). If my Charger was originally silver I would keep it that way as I like that color on them, just not as much as Q5.

[mauve66]

i agree with the not having to stick to a stock 68 color, i think a 2nd gen would look great in MAUVE
