my 69 originally was a T5 car and was painted black early in its life, I am debating on changing it to a color more my liking although the black is pretty its a pain to keep nice on a driver, i was thinking B5 blue,hemi orange, or A4 silver. its a numbers match car and am kinda torn to put back original or modify it to fit what i want which includes quite a few deviations from stock. opinions

T5 is a killer color!!!!! :drool5: One of my favorites!!!! :2thumbs: I have a B5 69 white top,R/T,it is a very nice color combo,but my all time fav was to have a real 3x black car.Numerous times I contimplated painting that B5 car to black,(even T5)but being a real R/T,I decided against doing that.Good thing cause 2 years ago now the black car popped up in front of me,and solved that problem.
My vote is go original!!!!! :D

Silver R/T

I'm kinda partial to painting it the original color but hope to own a car that is as it was as it left the factory. If another color is in the cards maybe keep it to a 69 model year color?  :shruggy: there are lots of excellent colors that year.

I would absolutely love to own a B5 car with white/black interior..   :drool5:

That being said its your car so do what you want.

Tough choice.  Silver is my favorite but it's followed closely by B5.  A next favorite for me would be the T5 and the fact that it's the original color in your case.  I'd say you need to go silver or roll some sort of three sided dice.

silver is probaly my favorite of the 69 colors with B5 and Hemi orange being a real close second the only thing with orange is the fact that the general public think that a confederate flag and 01 should be on every orange charger.

You got that right! :'(

I will second that T5 is killer on a 69. Plus you said it's the factory color, so I vote T5. Rare, original and killer. 3 for 3.

T5 is nice - I have 2-1/2 of them. It is one of the hardest colors (almost impossible) to get an exact match on....what with the new paints and metallics.
