Default Re: Least Favorite Color?

Yellow..
There's exceptions but yellow cars seem more often to be the butchered S'boxes when you get up close than other colors..
One exception is I've always liked 'Vettes in Warbonnet Yellow which is really more a gold color!.

least favorite...chrome yellow , bright red , any flip flop color change paint,and now unfortunately any sunset orange, used to be my favorite, now every seccond car is sunset orange or some variation of it.

I'm really having a a hard time deciding on the color for my 67 camaro... in fact my project is pretty much stalled because I can't decide a color.
I'm building a stripper dog dish big block 4 speed car.
The car was originally gold on gold.
I've changed the interior to black, and the colors I was tossing around are white,warbonnet yellow(gold),royal plum,deepwater blue,or nantucket blue.

It really depends on the car. Butternut Yellow looks great on a 1969 SS396 Chevelle (as the photo above obviously shows), just not a preferred color for me. I've seen a few 65 GTO's in a similar color, and they don't look very good in my opinion.

I'm actually more surprised by the dislike for red! I actually prefer a dark red, or burgundy, over a bright red, but again, if it was on a 68 GTO, with hideaways, just like the 1968 Motor Trend Car Of The Year, I'll take it!
