My 86 syncro used to be UPS van brown, I had it repainted Alpine White
and I am very happy with my decision. The only downsides are that
rusty seams are more visible, and I STILL have not refitted the entire
interior a couple summers later.

If I do go away from original the next question is should I pick an existing color option from that year? Or should I simply pick my favorite color? I really can't decide. I am leaning toward an exising VW color for that year. I like the two tone White/Blue. I also like the escorial green LT6A. I got this code from http://www.gti16v.com/vwcc1983.htm. Is this in fact a color option? I have never seen one this color.
