I've narrowed it down to two colors, can't decide which!:noway:

They are both newer Corvette colors, but I think either would make my '64 look good.:cool:

Tell me what you think, I'll post pics of my final decision after it's painted.;)

The Blue...

Blue by me.

BLUE,with white stripes

I'd go with the blue first, but maybe I'd biased. I used a similar color on my '71. I've had many compliments on that shade of blue.

Ironically, I'm looking at a similar orange for my next project.

Great minds must think alike :thumbsup:

I love that blue.

I say blue as well. The orange/rust colors that are so popular right now are going to seem dated in a few years. Blue is always cool.

Well I'm gonna say ORANGE!!!! :beers:

I say the "ORANGE " too....will be different and stand out instead of blending in.

Well I'm gonna say ORANGE!!!! :beers:

I'm with him......That's a GREAT looking orange :thumbsup: :beers:

Well I'm gonna say ORANGE!!!! :beers:

Your car is sick man! How long that take you to get from torn down to back on the street?

My vote: Orange!

Gotta go for the blue... think it works better on a classic...

You don't have to worry about blending in if you drive a chevelle, no matter what color it is.

If it were mine, I'd go with a factory color, but, your 64 looks rad enough to pull off that orange. I love blue, but you car screams Orange to me.
ORANGE!

sweet ride man! id have to go with the blue.. but.... you know it will look good no matter what!!! very nicely done. what size rims are those? 17"s?

It was two years start to finish...Of course I've been changing things over that last two as well.

I'd go blue.

That orange looks kinda brown at night-I did research on many oranges a couple years ago when I was painting my truck. I ended up painting it prowler orange-a stock 01? plymouth color. Looks redish at night and when the sun hits it look out-looks like a candy and amazing. I think it has 8 different types of pearl stock. So that might be something to look into if you're going orange...

There was a corvette in the shop next door with that orange paint and its one color I'd love to put on the elky.I say corvette sunset burnt orange.

go with blue. iam painting my 65 blue and was also considering some sort of gost flames here is the blue iam painting mine it off a 96 vette

The blue definitely. And ghost flames would look awesome.

I like the ORANGE, its :cool: !!!

I'm going to paint my 71 that color orange one of these days! ORANGE for me w/ no flames.

Orange please

Those are two entirely different personalities man!

I like both colors, guess I would choose the blue. But then I like more subtle colors.

Definitely blue. Try Fathom Blue. It is a 68 Camaro Color, Paint Code E

Please don't pick blue. Everyone and their brother has blue. :yes:

Go Orange!

I like the blue the best. I'd probably like a more traditional orange better. Nice looking car, I think whatever you decide will look good:thumbsup: .

Hey Jim,
Had a few minutes to kill with Photoshop...

Not the best work, but you get the idea..

I'd leave it the way it is now, the flat black primer looks rad. ;)

Atomic Orange!!!! It'll make the body lines POP in the sun.

I'm a serious "blue" guy (the toys in the sig are blue, my pickup is blue), but that orange is gorgeous, too. Yup, I'm on the fence. Good luck with your choice, but you can't lose either way. Both look good in the photochop.

I vote for orange, go different and its not so wild and bright that it will grow old fast.

I like both colors! There are a lot of blue Chevelles. The Atomic orange will make the car stand out from the rest. Uh, you need two Chevelles. :D

ANy color you choose will be awesome as all GM muscle cars are awesome. Personally I think both of those colors look best on the new corvettes. Honestly I think with the polished or chromed wheels you should paint it the black like the gas tank with the blue flames. I think that would look unbelievably awsome!! Just my two cents. You have to look at it everyday though! NICE CAR!!!!

I have a '66 Malibu in Marina Blue. I love the color on my car, but if I had to repaint it, it'd be just like the bike tank in the pics. That deep black with the blue ghost flames coming through make me want to go and sand mine down right now!
