Rick...your car is beautiful! Did you choose to change the color when you re-painted it? Looks to dark for Cortez Silver now, looks more like Shadow Gray which looks really good on a 69 SS Chevelle. At any rate your car is truly gorgeous, you did a very nice job keeping her that way for so many years!

Back in '86, I had no interest in leaving Cortez Silver on this car, didn't "jump" like other colors. I liked Shadow Gray, and that's what I picked.

Since basecoat clearcoat finishes have gotten better over the years, I may consider a return to the original colors, but not anytime soon.

Thanks!
