69 BB MARO ROTISSERIE RESTO
 

I am doing a complete nut & bolt restoration on my 69 Camaro. Original auto BB car, Olympic Gold with Green, 723 I think, interior. I definitely do not like the color combination and want to paint it Lemans Blue/black int. The original seats are in very good condtion except for being soaked in mice piss so I will have to replace them anyway. My buddies have mixed emotions. Some say definitely ORIGINAL-worth more, others say paint it what you like. I will have well over 40k invested when this is done.I would appreciate some feedback. Please and thank you. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

as ugly as it is, your car represents the styles and options of the time period. I say leave it as is. If you're going to change something, maybe replace the green interior with black. Olympic Gold is a great color.

Keep the colors, The car will look alot different to you with a killer flat paint job and new guts.
JMO.

I might be able to live with Oly Gold /Black int. The other thing I forgot to mention, its a t 400 on the column and I'm thinking doing a 4 or 5 speed. Any thoughts on that?

Honestly,if you're really that concerned about the financial return,I would sell it right now as is and find another car/color/options you prefer for the long run.
Otherwise I would restore it just as the factory built it and take pride in it,as I like your color combo/options.

imo the gold/green combo is no going to get it,i repeat,not going to get it.blue with black guts,a tko 600 5 speed will get it done, again just my opinion..
