Matte Black

Does anyone think the low luster charcoal black color which is now in vogue among street rodders would look good on a vintage Benz?

Yes

It would look very Mad Max. But you need power to back it up!

my first response in NO, but...

I've seen a tricked out '77 that was 'blacked out"...and had some amazing 5 spoke wheels with arches attached to the fenders... it was amazing.

But... BIG BUT... if it's not done well, it looks stupid - I saw an '80 300d done up similarly, but it looked liked many corners were cut to get the look... it was nasty!

have fun!
