Well, orange, green, purple, pink (I used to have a 78 Volare wagon with a blue interior that I painted "Krylon Safety Purple"), brown, yellow, or any two or three tone combination of the above colors.

C'mon, don't be boring! Don't let other people tell you what to do, do what YOU like!

Another thing to consider is the body style. I have noticed that some body styles look better in certain colors that do other body styles, especially two or three tone paint.

Can't beat white ext with blue int. I love stock rallye wheels but they just don't look nearly as good as black steelies with dog dishes on a white car. Theres not enough contrast.

You're pretty much stuck with black, white or blue. I used to hate my blue interior because I hardly had any choices for the exterior paint. After painting it white, I really like the blue because it stands out now.

Black is an SOB to maintain and blue on blue just doesn't look that good to me.

Black or white for me, and if its white, its gotta be a really clean, bright, white.

Interesting ideas and some good out of the box ideas.
The car is white and yeah that's the easiest most practical way to go and will
probably win out but I will keep and open mind as cosmetics are a bit down the road for this project.
Pictures welcome.
Thanks,
Brad

If you're using steelies with dog dish hubcaps, have the wheels blue matching the interior.
