I would err on the side of "correct" with:

1st choice: Autumn Glo
2nd choice: Azure Glo

I'm just sayin' . . .
Watch those teeth, Marlin. I'm not sure we've properly sedated the beast . . .

I had a refin/restore job done to a 1966 340 that I converted to a 330. It was originally FG, then poorly refinned to white. I had to do something opaque, so I went with AZ. Since it's refinned anyway, I don't think the color choice really matters. I chose AZ because I just think it looks cool. If I decide to sell it, it's not really valued at any more or less than any other color...just have to find someone that agrees it's cool! In this market, though, holding on to it is probably the best bet, given the total investment made. Thanks, Winfield Vintage.

To maintain value you should consider leaving it as is. Or keeping original Finish. But if it were me & I had to do a color change, Jet Glo, Fire Glo, Azure Glo would be my choice's.

Whatever you decide make sure you get somebody who knows what they're doing.
