I'm sold on the current black. Second pick would be white.

It is now. Home made, found this in Florida.

I could have put a Coral top on, but I could not bear the thought.

Should have left that red top on the stand, too. All the rest look good. You can use one based on your mood. Must admit the black has some kind of cool retro vibe.

One thing I'd prefer is the regular side spears instead of the 50th anniversary ones. I think it would do more for the lines of the car than the solid chrome does. Also would tie in the black of the tires and the top.

The Red one is for the Whisper White during the winter.

With black walls=black hardtop
if ever whitewalls=whisper white hardtop

Ya- I wish there was a picture with a Merlot, might work- the red doesn't. the black is classy Ron. I have to agree with Pauls call on the side vent trim (needs some depth there). Also agree with Gene- white my second choice. A touch of chrome @ the hood scoop & you could be done!

Here you go, courtesy of Photoshop (Merlot sampled off the 'net);



And the Mountain Shadow Gray (desaturated red - pretty close);

White is my choice and white wall tires would really set it off. The white cupboards in behind the car do not help in the picture.

Ron, Add another choice, all but the red. I like all except the red and since you have most of the top colors you can do as Paul said. Is the soft top Sand and do you plan on changing it?
