This one's for you Ferg!!
Apparently I'm in the minority, but I love the pure 70's look of our gold metallic color. Unfortunately my car had a Maaco respray that wasn't very gold and wasn't very metallic. I took care of that this year by getting my car repainted by Mark Israel at Eurotech Bodywerkes. Today was the first time I washed it since getting the car back and got lucky with a sunny day, so I finally got around to taking some good pics of the car. I thought I might get a better reception from this crowd than I get from my wife. |

Sorry to hear you are getting such a poor reception from your wife. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
Don't know if we will give you a better reception here (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) .....but your car...that's a different story (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Your car is beautiful! I've never seen one with decent paint....the few I've seen have had really crappy repaints, which would not have persuaded me to keep the color. Props for the courage to give it a go....and well done. It looks cool, very 70s, and unusual. Any idea of how many received that color. Hope to see it in person some day.... And may ask a question or two, later on, re your restoration....I am just NOT getting things finished off in my neck of the woods. Paul |
