Got the 2005 Connie I picked up this past spring running last weekend. Cleaned the carbs, adjusted valves, changed oil. Got all the @#$%%^ing plastic back on. Then started looking for tires. And bagged that idea, going to swap to 17". I've got a whole ZRX front end so that's covered. Just received a Meanstreak wheel.

Hmmm.... the paint is a little rough... Don't really care for the gold.... Oh hell. Let's pull the body work off again and repaint while at it!! Just what I need, another project. Eh. It's a long winter!
 
Did just that over a winter...many moons/years ago with my 98....went with a pearled orange...was gorgeous when the sun hit it...

Picture taken during a trip out to the montrose colorado area back in 2010...

I love that color on certain vehicles . I'd say it works nicely on the C14 .
 
OP, you're a genius? Konehead ... nice color, looks just like my bosses 2008 Z06 Vette color.
