    I would suggest red, but that's too popular

    I really like the color of Patrick's car (user Pbrown). Not a real popular color, but it's classic. I like my car's color too, since it hides a multitude of sins, but it's not really a color.

    How about a two tone. Paint it red with a dark charcoal roof maybe. Or red hood, roof and bed top with a dark charcoal or black or maybe gray down low.

    BTW - My 62 is Sandshell Beige. It's the original color.

    Another color I considered was Cool Vanilla. It's a newer Chrysler color that I've seen on several 300's and PT Cruisers.
