Hello folks, Im repainting my 60 Parisienne - wondering if I should go solid colour or keep the existing two tone - white roof/blue body

Maybe even a complete colour change ????

Ive seen some 60 two doors in solid blue that looked sharp: mines a four door. 

anyone been down this road, all thoughts respectfully appreciated. 
cheers 

Jeff

I like the look of the 2 tone on your car....found a pic of it in your posts. I would not go white on the wheels though.

Both look good to me, solid and 2 tone on that car.

I'd keep the two tone (is that how the car was originally painted?) and if it were mine find some correct steel wheels, paint them body colour and install factory hubcaps.

Hi guys - thanks for the quick replies. Yes, it was two tone originally and now Im thinking Ill keep it that way. I always liked it that way so I suppose I shouldnt mess with it.
Those wheels I believe are rally's off a late 60s and Id like to upgrade - thanks for the advice on painting them body colour, but I kinda have a hate hate relationship with most hubcap lol nk

And FYI to all. The rockers I ordered fit perfect and my body guy said they were thick ass American steel his words.
Anyway, if anyone was in need I could dig up a the address - out of Michigan. Very reasonable as well.

Thanks
Jeff
