What color SPI epoxy primer for dark forest green?

I’ll be painting the body of my ‘31 Buick dark forest green SS Wanda. What color primer? Black or grey or some mix? My fenders and other select parts are SPI SS black. Trying for a near correct restoration.

Thank you!
Joel

Your undercoats don't matter in relation to the color. Only thing that matters is what you seal it with. That color, the SPI grey would be ideal.
 
Black would work but it would take 2X as many coats. 3 coats over black will be significantly darker than 3 coats over grey,
