Help me decide what COLOR for my '66 Vert!

Car is going to the paintshop booth on Sept 20, so I got a few days to decide on COLOR choice... Here is the current scheme:











Im leaning towards white for the whole car with cream/beige roof and cream leather for the interior. What do you think? (the black roof gotta go coz its 95F here!)

Decisions! Decisions!

Help!

IMO:

I really like the colors on it. Im not a fan of brown type colors, but that car looks good.

Or go white, with a white top and white interior. that'd look pretty bad ***.

This is the reason why i need to paint the entire car:


Inside of the hood and engine bay were painted BLACK, and wires everywhere.


Here i've pulled the wire harness off, and gonna rewire the entire car...


Here you can see the paint started to peel off and surface rust can be seen

The main reason is that im changing all the 44-yr old rubber seals and bushings on the car. So since the windshield is gonna be taken of and the conv top redone, might as well repaint the entire car. After all, the paint on the car is 44 years old by now.

I actually find the scheme on it very cool but I don't like the colors. I was thinking maybe butterscotch where the white is now, and flat or gloss black where the gold is. Get you some nice wheels and I think that would be an amazing looking car. You gotta admit butterscotch and black look killer together... Also you would be different, you don't hardly ever see butterscotch. Or vice versa would be cool too, black where the white is and butterscotch where the gold is.

Yep.. I'm not sure, but I feel pretty positive that you have the only 66 Convertible dart, with the color combo and RHD.
