Color choices for my Buick wagon

[Eric]

Med. charcoal metallic, with a little extra metallic added.
Late 60's 70's light maroon/red interior, with the metallic charcoal on the dash, the top of doors (if metal) or a highlight/trim accent on the door card in a charcoal.
Sides of center console in charcoal, if you'll be using one.
Buick 1970 (?) stage one stripes painted on, but just clear with as close to matching the interior maroon/red peril . Making them ghost until the light hits them just right or instead of the red peril, A silver peril . Wheels color keyed to the paint, a) steel wheels and bright trip ring,
b)if alum wheels, he centers, with the hoop in a sandblasted, as cast look.
Not a fan of the all bright alum. wheels

If you want some extra flare, the 70 (?) buick stage 1 striping in a lace print , That they used in the 60-70 on low riders and street freaks, and roofs of some drag race cars.
Or go hog wild and use bass boat heavy flake in charcoal for the stripes.

I rather the ghost look. but

Dark Blue with a Tan interior would look wicked on a wagon.

Paint that sucker PANK! (Can't remember what song that's from......)

neat idea, but it's a sleeper - you know "nothing to see here, just grandpa in a Buick wagon"....

Pink is Bob's color.

I know you've already vetoed blue/blue, but that screams Grandpa's car to me. Is blue/tan a factory choice? Feels custom to me.

yep, then name it "the stinky pinky"..........

[DanStokes]

I did some research. It was "Paint that mother pank" and it was an MTV promotion with John Mellencamp. And a L O N G time ago. Something to do with "Little Pink Houses".

grandpa would never buy a white interior.... grandpa knew his driving caused stains by grandma.

bob for the win with his pink beaver... still no.

people with cars that green do drive like retards (read, slow), but no, Gas Monkey gets all the green cars.

Dove gray with a distressed burgundy leatherette interior... screams mid sixties Buick...

I like #3. #4 screams grandpa.

[RockJustRock]

Screaming Grampa is the goal. I like #4 but a few shades even lighter.

those are varying amounts of blue. The first one, for example, is simply a very light blue
