  • What different color would look best on merlot?

    I wonder if a silver top would look good on a merlot bird. Are there any pictures posted that show that combination?

        Bronze would look great! IMHO

          Go out and take a look a the gallery photos for the hard top combos. I had posted a pic of my merlot with a white hard top, taken during a hard top relay. I was surprised at how good it looked. Didn't think that the flat would look good with the metallic, but it did.

          The contract was very nice looking, add some white walled tires = sharp!

            I DON'T THINK ANYTHING WILL TOP THE MERLOT, BUT SILVER MIGHT BE THE NEXT BEST CHOICE.

                Lynda said that silver looked good but gave me no indication that any money would be spent on our bird since she likes the merlot top best. And you know I make all the decision when it comes to money in our house and I do have six more Thunderbirds for sale. Make me some offers so I can get money to buy a silver top. We wont be getting a silver top!!!

                    Thunderbird Blue is not a good color to go with Merlot:

                      Jimmy, You are right on there. I didn't like that combination. I found the gallery with the color combinations and since I really only have one Tbird and Lynda has told me what I will do I guess I will have to be happy with the merlot top and enjoy the sand top. One of my favorite sayings is: If a man tells you he rules his house, you better watch out he will lie about a lot of other stuff.

                        If I was to put a H/T on my Merlot I would chose gold as I have a sand interior.With the black interior you have a couple of selections my choice would be silver.

                          Cashmere. Now if you could yank the entire interior out of a Cashmere '05 and stick it in a Merlot, with a Cashmere hardtop; I'd say you would have the best looking Thunderbird of all time!

                            Someone could probably photo shop that so we could see. I hadn't thought of that combination. It would look good.

                              Joe don't you have a pic of a black top on your merlot?
                              I really liked that look.
