Hi, I am restoring my 1980 350LC 4LO and am not sure what type/colour of paint to use to get the closest match to the original black and stand up to use best? Any info would be a great help.
Cheers. Rich.

Thanks for that, will give it a go, does it need any primer or straight on to metal.
Cheers
Rick

Simoniz satin for me. no primer required for either of these choices, I have managed to get hold of PJ1 as well, would recommend that above others, but it needs to be warm for the paint to flow and not clog the spray nozzle, which seems quite common with PJ1.
