Good looking paint, especially for a improvised garage spray booth.

That makes two of us. We considered doing the interior in black and the cage orange, and then I saw a BMW with silver/orange in the same scheme and loved it, so at the last minute we decided to do the entire thing orange. I'm just starting the reassembly, and since everything I've ever purchased for the car has been black, it's going to really look good re-assembled.

Sadly, I don't think this car will ever be extreme as yours though. Can't wait to see this thing back together.

Well work your magic and get it back together in a day, because I'm excited to see it put back together. I think the black with only orange cage would have looked good too, but the full orange makes it stand out a bit more. I like flashy in a race car. Why go simple and reserved, make it stand out. My only concern would be any orange in your line of sight. To me the orange with the sun bouncing off of it would be a distraction and a bit on the bright side. Maybe all of the stuff in front of you will all get covered up, forget what your interior used to look like.

The orange isn't a factory color, and something I picked out at the local paint shop. I can give you the paint code number, but don't even know the name.

It's amazing what a camera can do. Keep in mind Sav is using a cheap PAS camera that really doesn't show the color very well. In those pics it looks "pastel" like almost... We'll get some quality pics up soon.
