Question:

1970 paint colors - is Lemon Twist (Plymouth) and Top Banana (Dodge) the same tint of yellow - just different names or is there a difference in the shades?

My 1968 Charger is SS1 but would like a brighter yellow and am seriously considering Top Banana - any comments or suggestions?

Im not sure yet.  The body isnt anywhere near ready but I wouldnt mind playing with the paint gun, just so I can get the hang of it, so who knows what i'll end up doing.   :scratchchin:

I would go with single stage then. You can practice on the jams & stuff.  :Twocents:

Yeah I might hold off a year or so, it might not take as long as I think to get the body ready...  Im hoping to have a welder real soon.
