Now I would of thought a pink would of been your answer Uncle Bob,or is that reserved for Don and his '27?? Bobby,my 2 cents worth, If you are going with the vinyl top I would paint the body and guards the same colour. Also because you started with a very straight original car,I think a dark colour would suit it. I in favor of the grey or maybe a silver type of colour. As I mentioned else where, picking the final colour can be the most awkward part of the built.
