Paint on 1977 T/A
I'm restoring my 77 TA again...The car is going right back to factory stock right down to the 8 track and AM radio.The thing that is really driving me crazy is, should I paint the car its orginal color or should I paint it black.The black looks good but I'm not sure of the brentwood brown.Don't know if a color change will affect its value...The car is number matching with black interior.So....go with orginal color or change it to black?Pic at right is orginal color

You could go with James Garner Gold. I'd lean towards original, but I've always liked the black ones, even before the movie came out.

with all matching numbers.... got to go brown.
If it was a parts car with no matching number, I would go black with black spoke (nascar look) rims.

I haven't checked on the prices of sticker in a few years also.This project went on hold for 4 years because I bought the dodge and that became my project.

The Z28 is a camaro...The firebird and camaro share the same F body frame.A few part are interchangable betwen the two...
