Question Honest opinion....

Here it is guys,tell me what you think.Positive or negative answers wanted !! I'm thinking of two toning my '69 Camaro SS .Leaving the bottom half red ,as it is now ) and painting the top half (hood-top-trunk) a med (not too dark) metalic silver-grey.Comming down on the side ,about even with the top of the door handel.Then custom painting some pinstripeing down the side to separate the two.Cost ... $1200 -1500.(two-three coats of paint & clear coated)....

From the sounds of it I think it would look really good. But final judgment will have to wait until the chop...

I would go with a silverish pearlescent/desert silver car with black two tone (not sure where the black would look best, bottom or top). And a red pin stripe down the side. JMHO.

Post a good clear pic of your current car !!
