Paint will happen this summer. Looking for Opinions. Stay with code CC Ermine white or change. Red interior limits choice. I am leaning toward stock CC ermine white.
Thanks

Nothing wrong with staying original, however there are viable color options to go with red interior imo. Black w/red interior, Red w/red interior...

i have been wrestling with this decision forever. mine's a cc too with black deluxe interior.
the traditional part of me thinks keep it true.
but the other part of me thinks "boring."
make it what you want, don't worry what others think.
hey, got any pics?

I have a pic in my profile. And in my gallery.
Thanks for the advice. It seem like a simple question but I will have one chance $$$ to paint. And I want to do it right.

If it is an RS or SS or some rare car, stay original. If not I love the Red on Red or Blk on Red

all the colors for 67 are pretty nice.
If you have a car with a lot of options, paperwork or rare option, stay original, especially if you want the most value.
If it has no real rarity, or no rarity and in super bad condition,then do what turns you on.
Whatever you do, you will wish you did the opposite.
Make youself happy.
If you can not sell it and you don't like it when you get done, you screwed up.
Hope this helps.
I saw a cc are last year with a black interior and black bumble bee stripe. It was gorgeous.
I would prefer your red interior to the black. Much more rare.

Nothing turns heads like a bright red Camaro. Higher resale too.

My vote is silver, with red stripes to match the interior.

How about black with ghost red strips were you can only see them when your right over it;)

Off to google land to try and find one.

I am wanting to stay original so my code is TT which is Capri Cream. This color is not very flashy but 67 is the only year it was used. The paint numbers I have found are 4819 Lucite, A-1909 Rinshed-Mason and 81578 Ditzler.
The question I have is how good are these numbers? These numbers are 41 years old. Will I be able to take these numbers to a automotive paint store and get Capri Cream?

I took my ditzler number for Fathom Green to them and they were able to supply 2 stage equivalent.

They should be able to cross-reference them and get you the correct color no matter what brand. if not do you still have a panel with the original color showing? if so they do have a color gun that can match just about any shade of paint
