I know how you feel, Dave. Of everything I am doing, picking the color is the most heart wrenching. I question every color I pick. But then, I am not up against the spray gun like you. Congratulations and cant wait to see it.

Ahh Orange, my favorite spider color. I can't wait to see it. It looks like the only time I can stop by will be on Wed May 27th or Thurs May 28th. Sometime around noon. Will you be at work?

Why GM paint? Were they having a liquidation sale? Just kidding.

Can't wait to see it, Dave! My new 1974 131 was orange, too - a great color.

Just remember that if you're motoring in New Jersey, it's "are-nge" :D

Ooooh....Aaaaah.
That is uber gorgeous!
It comes out on the monitor as a very unique shade of orange, kind of goldish orange. Wow, outstanding.
