That car is almost legendary because of the peachy colour, that was supposed to me Go Mango...I've got to ask, what was the original colour?

I like it peachy

Maybe buying a car of the non peachy variety would or should have been the order of the day

If I had the choice though I would have the car done a dark blue candy

Plum crazy it is then....its what they call a `no-brain-er`
If I were to get another muscle Mope,it WILL be plum crazy...Especially if its a B body(which it would be as they are far Superior to any other body style)

I'd go back to the original colour, or put it back to how it was when the Peach bros raced it....

True, but I think that is what yours was supposed to have been painted. As I say with it's history, I might be tempted to leave it as it is or paint it the original colour, particularly if it was a rare colour, that would be cool, especially with so many cars refinished in the popular colours like black, Tor-Red and Plum Crazy.

But as so many have said before, it's your car, do what you like!

I don't get this stick it back to original quote all the time. If its a crap colour & you fancy something different just do it. The next person who owns it can change it again. All these quotes of its worth more original are Bananarama!. Perhaps I should pull my 440 out & stick the 318 back in, while I am at it I will paint it crappy FY 1 yellow. Be worth a mint then.

Not trying to single you out Rob. Just my opinion
