Well, I am not a big fan of brown cars, but this one looks pretty well done. Not really my style, but he carried out the paint scheme pretty good.

I like the idea, but perhaps different colors (blue over silver?)...

I used to have that exact paint scheme on one of my other vettes. it was two tone silver. And it looked real nice. I wanted to do a blue/white combo on the 82 that I use as a daily driver now. But I am not sure if I will stick with it. The car will get painted in a few weeks. But I am not sure what paint scheme to use.

I think it looks nice, my roomate in college had a Camaro Z28 that color, I lked it then. I'm not big on brown car's either but I like that combo.

I"m just picturing that car "red" or maybe "silver", or "black" even. Great car. Not so in love with the color.

That Vette is on EBay as well. It appears it has caught the attention
of the notorious Unlimitedvettes, as he has placed a bid on it.
