What color is most likely to attract the most buyers for my Mustang? I finally saved up enough money for a car show-tier paintjob but still can't decide on what. Right now I'm more inclined to paint it red but would that be too "intense" a color that will put people off?

>>17493169
Why are you selling it?
>>
Grabber blue

>>17493169

It's a project car I bought several years ago to make money out of, so far I've only put $7k into it and want to get a bit of profit back.
>>
>>17493169
Highland green or black.
>>
>>17493193
Protip: you're not going to make your money back and you're an idiot

Dark green
>>
>>17493169
Look at the original factory colors and get some ideas. The choice is your's, but I would avoid Yellow and Orange
>>
>>17493207
How am I not going to make money back? I could sell it as is right now already and a profit already.
>>
>>17493216
Then do that instead of blowing money on a paint job boomer scum.
>>
>>17493208
Ugh no, the Bullitt clones that boomers obsessed over ruined that color for me.
>>
>>17493210
This, paint factory color it will be worth more assuming everything else is numbers matching. Do you have original drive train OP?
>>
>>17493223
If he paints it a nice color, then he can make substantially even more money on it???

Are you dumb?
>>
>>17493169
how about... finish repairing it and then put in the description that you can paint it at buyers preference for (((FREE)))?

Offwhite with ford blue stripe down the side

>>17493210
Red is the factory color, that's why I've been inclined to it as well. But my ultimate goal is to resell this so I want to maximize what I'll get out of it.

>>17493223
I'm only 32 brah, I bought this car literally because /o/ told me to several years ago.
>>
>>17493228
This isn't bad idea but OP will need to stress how the paint job will be from good reputable shop
>>17493235
OP do what this guy said>>17493228 just make sure to post in ad what original color was, what kinda shop would be doing paint?
>>
>>17493240
It's a reputable shop, I have no worries about the paint. But they already have a backlog of cars to repaint and mine won't even be repainted right away so I can't just leave it as is and wait for a potential buyer to chose their color and have them wait several months.
>>
>>17493251
They get exactly what they want though, maybe they don't want the factory red, it all depends but it favors the buyer imo
>>
>>17493235
>Red is the factory color
Then paint it the same color to maximize value and appearance.
>>
>>17493169
Where are you located?

How much are you looking to get?
>>
>>17493169
Hmm

Is it matching numbers? what do you know about the car from the factory?

Absolutely this if you want it to be as fresh as possible and authentic at the same time. Showy blues are THE color for cars right.
>>
>>17493235
Oh! Well if you have the paint codes then just do that. My Capri was red to begin with but I prefer the blue.
>>
>>17493227
If he does it the correct way, he doesn't make his money back. If it's a half ass resto, sure.

I hope you're planning on doing some more body work first, it looks like shit now and it will look like shit with paint too if you don't.

15k no low ballers. He knows what he's got. People who buy cars to "restore" and sell are cancer.

Decent tier: Shit body work and paint, cheapest parts all around, defects deliberately hidden.
Typical tier: VIN swaps, engine re-numbered, stolen parts all around, bondo over active rust

Why do you hate me senpai

The original color on your vin will make it more valuable.
>>
>>17493844
This.
>>17493819
Nobody is going to trust shit that a professional didn't do, and even then I'd rather do it myself. A big personal one for me is that I know nobody is going to restore the car I want the exact way I want it.
>>
>>17493856
I don't hate you personally, I hate the idea of you. I hate the people who let these cars decay to this level in the first place even more, I do hate them personally.
>>
>>17493871
I do agree that I hate people who let their cars rot away, I also don't like people who half ass restorations.
I don't know about where you live but the restoration community in michigan is very good at what they do and bring cars back from the grave to looking and feeling like they just rolled of the line.
Don't take those "restoration" shows on velocity as your standard, everyone hates those slobs.
>>
>>17494107
I'm in rural Georgia, most "restorers" here do it in metal buildings in their yards. One of them tried to get my grandpa to trade the doors on his 58 Apache for Chinese ones because his were "rusty" (they aren't)
