    Here's a pic of my 64 Electra. Bought it for 300 bucks, fixed the brakes and power windows, cut the coils and added Rivi wheels with bullits. I love/hate the original paint patina. What should I do? Keep the patina, suede, metalflake, gloss...what? I'm new here, right? Hope this works.

    There are several threads on here dealing with custom paint, just do a search, and do what you like, don't, I repeat don't ask what people on here think you should do, you will get a hundred different opinions and a bunch of smartass answers. just find something that appeals to you..

    I'd keep the patina for a while, at least until you're ready to actually paint it. If it were mine I'd do a candy red with a flake-white top.
