Ok...just got the car delivered from my coworker tonight.
I was curious about the color....it's painted slate grey metallic..which I knew wasn't a factory color in '77. Figured it got repainted at some point.
Anyway, I checked the paint code...and sure enough, it's a pretty rare "paint to sample" that wasn't officially offered. It's Anthracite Metallic. I had an idea to paint it continental orange, put steelies on it, and then lower it. ...but something tells me to leave it the original rare color. what's the consensus here?
