Interior color

[slusher]

Guys I am working on my cannonball run model.  My car is med blue with white superbee strips.  I painted the interior black, would white suit it better..

I guess in the end it all comes down to personal taste.  Maybe white seats & black carpet?  Whoever invented white interiors for cars never had kids!

I don’t think you can go wrong either way Carl.  Which do you like better?  Being a resto mod theme this year, pretty much anything goes.?

What about a light gray? Was white ever offered in a S.B.? It is your build do as you wish. But i picture a 25 year old in 69 with a S.B. and his buddies working on cars getting in and out of the S.B. would trash the white.

Tamiya offers several different Military type colors including some shades of blue in rattle cans. I have liked to use them in several builds in the past as the finish has a soft sheen requiring no additional clear coats and usually one light dusting seems to be fine.

That’s a great idea David and I have a can of medium/light blue. Still getting use to Tamiya colors.  Thank you sir!

White vinyl with blue carpets would stand out and keeps the color scheme of the exterior. It's  a cannonball restomod, so room for artistic license!
