It's all in what you like. Knowing what paint cost today I would leave it the stock color.
What color is it & what would you go with...just curios...Joe

I'd go with Dover White if it was mine unless your looking to flip it. The older I get the more I'm realizing 69 Camaro's and 70 Chevelle's look good in almost any color, and white is one of them. There are a couple colors I don't care for on either of them but I don't want to offend anyone so I'm going to keep my opinion to myself. But it is your car...

How much it will hurt value depends on what it is. Clone, probably not at all. Grocery getter, not much. Rare HiPo car, quite a bit. Oddly, on a high value car, it would probably hurt the value more than the cost of a repaint.

I agree on keeping it Dover White. They look great in that colour

Yep...I wouldn’t consider a nice/rarer car with a color change unless I was getting a super deal.
