This is the best pic I can find. I was holding onto the silver out of love for the car of my youth. Kind of a loves labor lost thing. My wife found this color. This is a photo of Hot Rod magazine. If you google GM Shadow Gray a 70 Chevelle pops up

That's a black and white pic, there's no color.

Go to TCP, and look at the color spectrums. Get an idea of several colors you like, and take it to a graphic artist with a stock photo of a 64. They can make the pic any color you want, and you will get a much better, much more accurate idea of what you want.

If you are not specific, not detailed in your idea, and are able to present it to whoever is going to paint your car, chances are pretty good you will be disappoint. Don't let that happen, do the homework, make a calculated decision.

Ask your painter what he prefers to shoot, and zero in on a color of that type. They have mock bodies that allows you to see the color at diff angles of light. Click the mock bodies, look at how they are in diff light.

You can have effects added, but that makes it more difficult to touch up if you have to do a repair.

OE colors make it easy, since once you pick an OE color, the code can be used to easily match the paint, and it can be done across diff manufacturers.

I'm not talking about looking at just OE colors for your year car, I'm talking about new car colors, new car colors are less expensive too. Once a color goes beyond X number of years, if has to be mixed, and pre-mixed batches are not longer available.

Take a sunday, drive thru car dealerships, look at diff colors on whatever brand/model you want, it doesn't matter, you still get to see the color in person. Write a bunch of different ones down, take notes and pic, and go over your notes and pic in the evenings in front of the TV with a beer. Narrow it down.
