Final ER10 color decision in the making

Post by mickyd »

You know that I have been struggling with my final paint color decision. I am going to throw out this final view of what the ER will look like painted Rustoleum burgundy. I used a beautifully restored ER done my the guy that heads up the ER yahoo group and colorized it to show what mine would look like.

So should I go with the stock gray color (edit 11-02-09 - This gray is actually hammered gray, not stock grey) or burgundy?

I must admit that the burgundy looks pretty sharp but if I was making the decision, knowing that that ER was going to end up in my shop, it would be gray and black.
