Leaning towards Martinique Blue, gold turbo wheels, gold/blue bird, and keep the turbo hood. I really like the color and it would keep it within the general period of the car.
This is the color.

that's the blue I was thinking when I mentioned an earlier blue. But not with gold. That color scheme in your pic there is sweet.
Don't love this.
This looks like your color:

I don't love the first pic with all that body line gold pin striping. I would leave that off and focus on it being the wheels and the hood. Brushed silver/silver can still work too but I will have to think on it.

Love the Martinique blue and silver wheels. Friend just had one briefly and it was gorgeous. Not sure I like it with gold wheels as much.

Realy personal preference. Black & Blues seems to be good choices. Marty blue & silver is a nice combo when done properly. Blk/ blk. Blk/tan along with marty or nocturne blue and tan work well.
Gold n blacl works too.
Its your car, what do you like?

I think the lighting isn't all that great in the pic. With some sun, it would "pop" better.

I like an impact color for a car like this. Don't get me wrong, I love the Black/Gold TA's but I think a brighter metallic blue will accentuate the body lines nicely.

Will it have a love letter from you? Still waiting for your YouTube channel to get going so we can all just play and spend money.

It was on the list. I was thinking a modern vette blue but the Marty Blue seemed to fit the look.

It should be fun but I haven't had much time to help him with it. He has been working on the trunk a lot and restoring the tail lights. I will be getting the pics from him and posting them up soon.

Everything needs boost. We will explore that option if the cosmetics turn out the way we want.
