Default Need advice

I have an '88 F-150 XLT Lariat edition. It has the 351 Windsor engine, and I'm in the process of sanding out the minimal rust it has. I am trying to decide if I should go with the original TWO-TONE gray with the Ford factory red pinstripe, or if I should go a different way with it and do a completely different color. I want to get the most money for it when I sell it next summer. What do you reccomend I do to get the most for it when I sell it. Mind you it currently has only 62,000 original miles. and I do not plan on putting to many miles on it in the next year (the price of gas). But thank you in advance for the advice on what I should do regarding the paint.
Thanks,
Jake

Have the truck repainted, the mis matched paint might give suspicions about body damage or accident.
