Getting my cruiser repainted and debating whether to keep it dark emerald or change it to white, thoughts everyone
 
Many advantages to white. Mine is dark emerald and the clear coat has seriously deteriorated on upper faced surfaces, ie: hood & roof. Not to mention rock damage from removing running boards. Title indicates you'd like a pic of rig:

yes do u have a side profile. mine is the same color but paint has faded all over truck. so debating whether to switch color or do the same as the orignal
 
If you are doing a full disassembly and paint, now is the perfect time to paint it whatever you want to, and white is a great color. Otherwise, I‘d stay with 6M1.

Try to ignore the dirt. You can see some of the deterioration on top of the front fender. Hood was repainted black with bed liner. Roof damage is under the rack.

If you're going to all the expense of new paint, might as well make it your favorite 80 series color whatever that might be.

It would be dark blue for me.
 
I love some 6M1, but white is a close second. I say keep it original.

will post a better pic soon but here I was changing the wheels. I was lucky enough to score a set of 285's with 10mm remaining for free so put them on my original rims !

Don't forget the armor! Although seriously, I think that's what sets it off and makes it unique in a good way. It's well kept, despite the trails you wheel. It says a lot about your care for your rig. I admit, I don't spend the time on caring for the appearance that I should.
 
Getting a complete repaint next couple years. Starting to really fade on the drivers side fender. Was repainted at least once before. Keeping it 6M1.

Here is my before and after


I also discuss the quality of the paint and the attention to detail

 
This was my 90k mile '93 I sold in 2020.
