I had my local pinstripe guru and friend Skip do these renderings of my Sedan delivery. I would like your guys opinion. It mostly comes down to color but tell me what you think???

I agree with your wife's choice.

I like the paint on your Metro. Maybe add some light, light, light blue (ghost) scallops under the pearl. That's what I wish I'd done b/4 the pearl was applied. But Jeff prob'ly has the safest suggestion.

I like all of those. I might bring the parting line down to the first ridge line. I like the darker upper and lighter lower half versions. The green with dark roof and hood was sharp looking.

Green looks good. I think it needs to stand out...... Neutral colors dont work.....its a SEDAN DELIVERY!!!!!! it needs to Pop!!!!!!1

My original thought was the blue with a light blue silver on the top, but now I am more confused than ever.
Good part is my Wife picked the color for the Metro so this one is all me!!! Skip liked the purple one best?? I don't think I am a purple kinnda guy. Oh well lots of sanding to do first. Thanks for your input.

How about viking blue bottom and a dark navy blue hood and roof?

Here is a Cobra with viking blue:

I like that blue!! I am a little gun shy of dark roofs. I live in Phoenix and Las Vegas for many years and dark means HOT.. I know that is not a huge deal up here but what if I ever have to go back??? Love the pic thanks...

I looked and before I read anything I said to myself it needs to be lighter on the bottom than the top... then Patrick said the same thing. So of the three I like most, being the upper two and left-most two (duplicating one choice here) I like the white/yellow one most. That is of course if your wife likes it.

No it is not but there will probably be one there within the next year.

Did anyone see the Trucks shop on spike this weekend?? They did paint on their project super duty. It was a blue on top and gun metal gray on the lower half. Looked good. Maybe with the gray on top and blue on bottom???
