Thank
you all for your responses. The interior is green. The transmission is the
original 350 until I get a 200R model. I haven't been too concerned about the
drive train as it's easy to put that all back together as it came from the
factory. The paint is the issue of the decade. I have pondered it for years.
Albeit I did sandblast the sea green off it a few years back, and it sits in
primer now. All these responses are wonderful. If I had my way I would still
paint it an Air Force gray with appropriate markings!. Talk about unique :-) I'm
starting to lean toward my first cars color(a 71 Chevy Kingswood in dark
green metallic) or the 72 Spring green metallic looks nice. I wish I could stand
the sea green, but I really hate it. Of course I got it as a repo in 91 for $250
because I knew someone who owned the bank. I couldn't have cared less if it was
barf green with stripes at that price. The biggest downfall is someone went way
overboard with rustproofing and even got it on the hood hinges. The sandblaster
didn't put much effort to removing it, (said it was impossible) Funny thing is
it still flakes off in places. I'll still listen to opinions. You people are all
great. I haven't seen Sarge online lately. I'm going back east for a month soon.
I'll dwell more on it till I get back. Nice to see there are other women on
board here. :-Diane
