Yes but that is why I bought a runner. Once it is done. IF EVER. But the track chair moves pretty good too. :lol:

I am way off from having to worry about paint. However I thought I would throw this up to see what people think. Originally my car was Vitamin C which I like, but there is also something special about black cars, in my opinion. I would be happy with both.

What do you think?
I'd go with the Vitamin C for two reasons: I'm an all original kinda sorta guy and, while black is just about the best (my opinion) color for a car, it is miserable to keep clean and it gets dirty with the car just sitting still. I had an all black 87 Suburban; acres of black sheet metal. Looking back, I don't remember ever seeing a black Road Runner. I'm sure they were out there, just never saw one. Just my two cents.

The darker the color the harder to keep it clean. :nutkick: It's a real kick in the nut's to wash it and not be driving it. Yes my three cent's and no change. Russ. :lol:

As you probably know the body flaws will show up worse with black as well as dirt.
Is that a consideration?
You are in the north but does the car have AC?
Black gets very hot and I assume summer will be your main usage. .
So, since it is a light color originally, I would tend to go for orange though black can be very attractive.

When all said and done. Even if it is rusted dirty and has flaws sitting in a junk yard rotting. The main thing is it is a ROADRUNNER. :lol:
