Ive even spoken to the shop owner about doctoring up the color to get it to pop.Anyone else gone down this road ? Thanks for any input


Paint it what ever color that appeals to YOU.
No matter what, a 73 is going to have a somewhat finite ceiling..original color or not, so enjoy it how you want to enjoy it.
