I'd do the paint job in the original color and striping. I'd just tuck the original wheels away and put some nice aggressive rim / tire combo on it (like posted above by Andy). Maybe Long Tube Headers, H-pipe, Mufflers, bigger Carb, etc. Tuck all the stock stuff away so if you ever sell it you can put that stuff back on. You'll get far less if you change the color and chuck all the OEM stuff that came with it. In fact if you want to make a quick profit just PM a price and I'll take it off your hands if it's reasonable. You're only 3-4 miles away from me.
