I like white

also like yellow................LOL

If I were changing colors and thinking yellow I would go with one like House or Color Pearl Yellow

The 67 I just bought it a real pale yellow, if I decide that is can be built it will be alpine white with red 69 GTS stripe

Boy, that Challenger brings back memories.   I had one just like that (Top Banana) with the black rump stripe when I was a kid of about 19.  Was a 440-6pack car with auto trans.  Too much power for a kid to use on the street.   Totalled it out and was lucky to get out without a scratch.   

I'd keep the Challenger original and try white on the Dart.   That white convertible above looks real nice with the black trim and chrome wheels...

White would go better with the black and charcoal leather RT Durango intereior! Bumpers are powdercoated black, black GTS buttstripe and black GTS hood inserts in the hood would really be sharp. It really looked cool when it was fresh yellow paint though!   Popcorn

my 69 Charger was 76 Corvette yellow. EVERYONE who was trying to "be in the know" would ask me if it was top banana.

I've always liked white Darts. ... And black darts..

Look again

everything on the exterior of the car that would have been black is the same dark blue as the stripe

My sons Dart is a 72, but it is Top Banana Yellow with the white vinyl top and a custom painted on white tail stripe. The interior is white and black. Since I have THREE yellow Mopars, I guess that you will guess which color I'd recommend you go with!  Grin

I think the white would be a nice clean look.

  agree Against my better judgement and straying from true colors, I am considering Dover White.  \/][ It is a great color and not so bright. Wildcat, NICE ride and is that Alpine white?
