I'll be surprised if anyone agrees with me on this, but I love a good lightning yellow/black stripe paint job.

I love the combo i used on a friends harley. Use a deep rootbeer brown metallic base with a pearl white stripes kinda like the pearl white used on recent caddy's it's a killer combo.

paint

I would suggest looking at the paint codes/chips for 1970 Oldsmobile.
Hard to tell what it looks like until you see on that style of car!

If you are going back to factory, by your pic you will need the halo trim for the vinyl roof and lower body moldings also. I will throw my own hat into the ring with a picture of my 70 Supreme code 25 Astro Blue/ black vinyl and another of a sedan (not mine).
