Ok i got the year Camaro i wanted but i was wondering what you guys thought. I am wanting to paint my car cause i dont really like the yellow. The car is original yellow paint with a vinyl top as you can see in my pic. If you guys have any good ideas on what colors or what would look good.

 

thats a little picture. add it to your album. welcome to the forum. black or red for color and im not a fan of ninyl... what color inside. more pictures. what motor? auto? posi?

 

i just put one up for my car i will get some of interior and engine and all. It has a original 350 with turbo 350 but i changed the 350 cause the old one was dead lol. The interior is all original too it is an open dif but i am going to put a posi and bigger gears when i can. Good thing is i only bought the car for 2000

 

Congrats dude. I just picked up a '78 the other day too.
As for paint, my friend and I are leaning towards black, with maybe some red stripes. I'm a big fan of the black with red accents look in just about any car.

 

hey man i've also got a 79 camaro z that i'm working on now, mines got all black interior and i as thinking of doing it either black with white stripes or like a charcoal color with black stripes but i'm not sure yet, hope this gave ya some ideas and good luck!

 

Black is really nice looking, but your body better be PERFECT, if you choose black! Every tiny imperfection will jump out at you, and really look worse on a black paint job.
I love black, but most folks never get their car straight enough to look good in black.

 

im a big fan of the black with red stripes too, just a little to common for me.
Not many burnt orange 78's like mine around, just gotta get the rust spots fixed up and then im gonna paint it the same color again

 

My '81 was "dark blue metallic" with the white stripes. I really liked it. Theres a couple of pics in my albums. I havent had it since '95. I always like 2nd gens, I've had 7. Good luck, nice car and let us see when your done.

 

I was thinking of a darker blue and then have a lighter blue for strips i think it would be bad *** and have never really seen one like that but yeah...

 

Blues look great on a camaro in my book.Theres so many body lines that make the car sharp, but dark colors can hide those lines.light colors can really bring out the toghness of that car.I dont have any pics of it but my dad had a 79 hugger orange with a fire engine red mix with black stripes and man that car was hot.
