I'm embarking on a big project - taking the Doyusha Stratos - Monte Carlo - and turning it into a street car. I realize that there were body differences, but I'm going to do what I can.
But I'm somewhat stuck on what color to paint the thing. I've seen really wild blues, oranges and chartruses but haven't settled on any one of them.
Suggestions? I want it to look period-correct (so no color-shifiting, etc.)

I like this green hue, I've got a Fujimi Enthusiast street version that's going to get this very green livery

The green gets my vote....and it was a factory color.

That green Stratos is beautiful. I say green, with yellow polka dots ;)

Research, research, research.
If you're doing a replica stock model, research factory options. The information is out there.

The green is what I was leaning towards myself. I was considering Cobra Colors' Lamborghini 'Verde Aires' (http://cobracolors.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=CC&Product_Code=L2VA&Category_Code=LAM) . And since the kit has the 5-spoke rims, paint them yellow like in Proosen's example.
Thanks for the suggestions - and for the link to the supersite. As I get more into it I'll start posting some progress pix.
