Default New Paint

well im going to start getting ideas and prepping for some new paint.
im going to keep it black..but want to either have silver or darker blue in there.
im not to awfully sold on 2 tone on this car, but an "overlay" like a thin metalic sheet of blue or silver, or even both ontop of the black, in my imagination would look super sweet.

i have painted metal and a bumper cover w/ enamel, no runs..but i didnt sand the cover and of course it had peel.

any ideas on color scheme and tips/tricks and how to would be great.

since i do have a few dents/dings here and there, im going to have to learn body work too.

i have done everything but the bottom end on this car (did it once and the bearings got ate up so i let a pro did it the 2nd go around)
and want to paint it.

so if you got anything to add or say, spill it. thanks!

heres how it looks now.

thats what im thinking on doing. i havent found any pics of what it looks like yet

since it was rebuilt, like 700. Wes (stanger007) can vouch on that (he rode in it). i drove it there to his place, and back, and to work a couple times and had to pull the motor for a lower end problem and its been in the yard ever since
