Norm - my first Chevelle when I was in high school (17 y/o) was a 1965 6 cyl, 2 door post, with cloth interior / my favorite color is Danube.
- put chrome Cragers and white letter tires on the old girl, after first week / it had a light cloth interior, but we can improve that

^^ Repaint exterior in Danube blue (dark) and slap a red or blue (2nd choice) SD interior, in the convert.

- trim and chrome on car, will simply pop

- roof needs to be black plus add factory/repro green tinted glass (all around) >> stunning combination, for an A+

Seen on a 67 Camaro once, with white hood/trunk RS or SS stripes.

^^ INTERESTING Chris - I'm now digging the blue top, on a dark blue paint car.

Absolutely black on black!!!

Thanks

Wow, it is so subjective and everyone has their favorites. Some like raspberry red, some like gunmetal grey, some like clean white, some like screaming yellow or even flat black.

 

On that particular car I like the idea of dark blue with tan interior, but I think a quality hartz top in tan would really pop with the tan interior. Or perhaps Willow Green, which is normally so damn boring, would actually look great on that car with a black top & interior. The silver with red interior rendering above also looks very nice. I think a nice colour that is from a high-end luxury car is appropriate for the way that car shows. Trendy bright colours would get old. Clean white with either a black top & red interior, or with a blue top & interior would also look nice. Or perhaps a nice hunter green with dark green hartz cloth top & tan interior.  Feeling rebellious and don't care about the neighbor? Red with yellow flames!

tan interior for sure with the green like the 66 six cylinder for sale on here or desert sand out and tan in and white top

For some reason I lost the poll I created.  My choice from the start was a dark turquoises that would complement the factory Nova SS aqua interior.  I'm limited in interior colors because I do not know of a repro interior for the Canso or SD cars.  The car has Nova SS bucket seats so the colors available in the Nova SS repro interior are red, aqua, blue, black and fawn.  I don't see white being available.  

When I told my wife my choice, she said no it needs to be red.  I happen to think the aqua interior and the exterior colors, Artesian Turquoise and tropic turquoise, were under appreciated in 1966 and with a black cloth top they would give that classic appearance to the car.  Dark colors and the cloth top normally appear that way to me.

So I have given in a little to my wife and allowed the possibility of black with a red interior.  I saw an original 66 Nova SS years ago with a Marina Blue paint and white interior that was great but no white interior available.

 

The original light blue, sorry i do not know the name with the light blue interior. The ONLY way to go. 

Paint it red       that will Double its value     dark turquoises  ????????    yuck x 100
