Valerie;

Your last e-mail included the statement:

"It had been repainted by a PO to a dark charcoal metallic grey, which,
although was not the original pimento, was an excellent paint job, and I
could live with the color."

I'm planning on repainting my '74 early this spring. It's a color #72
(Pimento). I wanted to get it repainted to a dark blue but several
friends have told me it will negatively affect the resale. What do you
think listers, does repainting a different color (even if the engine bay
is done also) from original hurt the resale? I think a quality job with
quality paint and workmanship should outweigh any negatives. What do you
think?
