Bill, I think I'd like it in blue pearl, but how do you guess at restoring a custom color? The car is stored in a fancy pole barn type building, with bad lighting. The mauve-pink pearl looks 40 years old, even if it isn't.
Bob McDorman does send a couple of his cars to the Vette museum every year, but mostly his cars just gather dust in the dark. I don't think any of them would start without a lot of help. Some day there's going to be a heck of an auction.
