Hot rod black or not...
Hey gang... So I am looking for some input here, I have seen similiar postings in the past about painting cars hot rod black (or flat black, whatever you want to call it) .. As you can see from the pic, my Dart is multi-colored to say the least.. lol.. I have her mechanically done (at least for now).. But due to money being extremely tight, I am probably a couple years away from paint.. I still have to hang a passenger side quarter, drivers rocker needs some TLC, and the fenders need work as well...
So anyways the idea started getting kicked around in my group of garage buddies to paint the car hot rod black for now, so that at least its one color.. Of course this sparked debate LOL .. Some said it was a waste of paint, and a pain in the *** extra step of removing more paint when it comes time for actually body work.. others say it will look cool.. and still others have said the car looks cool and mean already with the whole 'work in progress' theme...
So my choices are... All hot rod black, Hot rod black but leave the roof blue and have a blue stripe, or lastly.. leave it the way it is....
Any ideas, thoughts or input would be greatly appreciated....
One finaly note, the car will eventually be B5 blue, and that color is already sprayed under the hood.. (adding to the multi-color theme lol) .. and Monica has said she likes the idea of hot rod black.. adding to my 'not sure what to do' dilema LOL
