Car colors!

[El Rat]

Gents...some cars are meant to be a certain color. I know some of you all are going to get your panties in a wad but oh well. For instance a 58 impala should be black and a 62 SS should be red! Ok fire away!

I had a buddy in high school with a Black 58 Impala convertible and it was bad a$$ looking. I had a 62 SS Impala at the same time and it was Honduras Maroon with black interior, I loved it so much I have another one now.

These cars look great in ANY color but I always liked the clean look of Ermine White!

I have had both black and Roman Red 62 SS Impala hardtops over the years. I'd have to say the black one was my favorite, but upkeep was a pain. The red one definitely gets "noticed" more.

I’m with Bob! Ermine White, goes with ANY interior color. Cool in the summer. And yes! Give me a ticket Red on Corvettes! But Blue is my favorite color!!!

I’m crazy for the Ermine White also. Damn if it don’t go with everything.

Jeff: My wife's uncle, had a 1959 Pink Cadillac. It was a Beautiful looking car. He called me up, one day, to change a flat tire, because he was temporarily disabled. I took the jack out of my Chevys trunk, and went around the corner. I started jacking up his Caddy, and my Jack was bending in the middle. I did get his tire changed, but it was an adventure.

Not SS, but I'm partial to Ermine White as well

Picked my colors from a book at the paint store. It was originally a green car. When I got it in 1985 it was already red. Kinda wish I would have went back with the original color.

I prefer Black over Red on most anything, I think that's the cat's meow.

That said the only Red on my Corvette is the interior (it's White on the outside).

My '62SS sports it's factory colors, Ermine White over Aqua buckets .

The '62 Biscayne was some other color from the factory, but now it's Black over Red, done before my ownership.

Not sure what the '62 Convertible will be, heck at the rate I'm progressing it'll never be done...

I have a 1961 Bonneville in primer, but she was Black over Red from the factory.

The BA 409 car was Sateen Silver over Blue from the factory, but was Ermine White over Blue w/Blackseat covers when I got her. Now she's Black over Red with a bit of that rust color James was mentioning. A different kind of "Lightweight" ...

Then there's the 1961 Biscayne, "Mint to Be", I forget the name GM called it, but it's mint green.
