I have a 57 Club Sedan that needs repainting. Can't decide what color. Originally Colonial White and Coral Sand. Dash and window trim is Silver Mocha or in english, brown. Interior is new rolled and pleated brown and cream. Carpet is brown. Car was repainted in the 90's a tan color, 89 F150 truck color, close to Doeskin tan. I don't like it. My son calls it the brown turd. My wife votes for Coral Sand. I'm undecided. I've seen some real pretty burgandy colors that I think would go with the interior. Not going to change the interior. What is your vote on the color, original coral sand or some other color? Keeping the Colonial white.

   Anything except brown. I have never liked that color on a car stayed away from some because of the color, except my first car a 57 Ford Custom 300 was brown but it only stayed that way for a month and painted the brightest white I could find.

   But than again it is your car and keeping the wife happy does go a long way.
