Help me chose a color
« on: July 29, 2007, 12:47:07 AM »

OK, I have been killing myself trying to make this decision, and I still can't decide. I want to get your opinions please. If it is Black, then it will have a Red stripe and red interior. If it is red, then it will have a white stripe and either a red or black interior.

Choice 1:


Choice 2:

With the 318 I need "I am bad just sitting there" but I could do without the "see me run". Maybe after I get the stroker in it.

How about orange with a big 01 on the door. That would be sweet.   hammer

I prefer the black with red stripes as said above if you have the body for it.

 If it was sooooo simple you wouldn't be asking, besides you must realize that everyone has their own fav color combo. DO you really care what evryone else thinks?

I kinda like the odd ball stuff myself check these pics.

I'm a tad on the unusual side too.

On my 74 duster i went (well its not finished yet)

Rallye Red with Black 71 340 Stripes (Not painted yet, but thats the plan) with Black Wrinkled Vinyle Headliner, Black Pleated Vinyle 1/4s, Black Smooth Vinyle Door Panels, Black Wrinkled Denim Dash and Black Smooth Denim Package Tray.  The Grille gets painted in Dark Argent and the Midway Argent/Chrome Color (2-Tone)

For the Engine Compartment i went Rallye Red, Blower Motor is Gloss Black, Wiper Motor is a midway between Argent & Chrome, Ign. Box and accessories are the same midway silver color. 340 is Hemi Orange, Master Cylinder Cap is the Same Argent/Chrome midway, Brake lines are Rallye Red, Master Cylinder is Flat Black.

Underbody and Rear Wheel Wells are Gloss Black Bedliner, Front Wheel Wells are Black Bedliner with Rallye Red paint over them. 8-3/4 & Drums are Chrysler Blue Bedliner

Denim Dashpad - http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x42/ChrisKDD/S5000597.jpg
Engine Compartment - http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x42/ChrisKDD/S5000592.jpg
Headliner  - http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x42/ChrisKDD/S5000340.jpg
Headliner 2 - http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x42/ChrisKDD/S5000351.jpg
Package Tray - http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x42/ChrisKDD/S5000349.jpg
Pleated 1/4's - http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x42/ChrisKDD/S5000338.jpg

Diffrent is good, because the plan is as follows, when a passenger gets in my car he's going to be too occupied on figuring out the interior that he'll fail to notice i've yanked the slapstik shifter from Park to 1st and looking to open Primaries and Secondaries on the Thermoqaud Equipped 340 in one move of my foot (right now it's a Qaudrajet equipped 340)

this is what makes it fun. everyone likes something diff. this is good..  i like black, i have a black suv & a black boat now. but a black car is VERY hot in the summer..and it needs to be very straight,  now with that said red is my fav. color , so i would red with white stripes, black int. but what do i know.. my challenger was blue when i bought it .(1978) i painted it red , 1982 or so , painted it white 1997 or so. go to paint it again with in the next few months, back white.. good luck

IF I do another Dart it will be a white Hardtop with white interior and red stripe, just like my brothers 69 he bought in 72.

But if I were going Black it should have red and red

Red I would do white and white

My understanding the stripe and interior was the same color in most cases

Nope, you can pretty mich order and color combination you want. I once saw an original Dart, Green exterior, black vinyl roof, gold interior with a white stripe.  puke

As a matter of fact, I have seen a lot of green cars with the gold interior, not tan, but GOLD! Gross!
