As a painter and long time enthusiast, I am not a fan of one color jobs. I guess it is because I have seen the "generic" street rod for too long. With a two tone, you have the chance to give the car more of an individual personality......Someone might even remember it!

A 2-tone in those colors, and following the body lines, it is a very safe way to go. Also, since we are talking about black and a very light gold shade, which are both "value colors", you will give it a look of worth. Very little risk of getting into trouble with this plan.
