Quote: Thanks, Black is my favorite color on any vehicle but I wonder if the reflective qualities of a lighter color would be beneficial to keep the car cooler? In other words, would a light colored car ET better?
I think a good coat of wax on the paint will allow the car to cut the wind better so that will offset the heat retention of the paint color.
But to be honest with you...you might have a point there. I know many stock, super stock racers don't paint there engines just for that very reason.
....there is nothing like driving my 1968 Hemi Dart around town and having people looking at you like you're nuts!!
