Well.... Sounds like I`m stuck with two of the least prefered colors on my Corvettes. One green 
and one white But I don`t care, I like them..

1965Fuelie,
I wouldn't be at all worried given that your duo have the two best Midyear engine options available! 65 Fuelie and a 67 BB. Nice garage you have there. I'm envious!
I've always been a big lover of silver on all midyears AND I am absolutely head over heals for 67 Lynndale Blue/Black cars!

When I was in the market for a midyear I was looking around for a real silver on silver BB car and this pic was the inspiration , I was never able to find one for sale so I guess it must be quite rare. I bought a silver/black car later.

...That's funny... for some reason a few silver/silver cars showed up for sale after I got my silver/black `66 L72 car , but that's water under the bridge now and I have never looked back. Peter

The most striking color combo I have ever seen on a C2 is the Daytona Blue/Red. If I had a 63 restomod this is what I would choose, I finally found a picture of it:
Alas, I have a 66 so it will get a different color combo.

64 corvette interior color
I need to buy some touch up paint for my 64 vette, It is the interior "RED/Orange" Does anybody know what color it is called? It is used on the dashboard cover... Also do you have the paint code?

In 1967 only 815 were painted BLK. Not sure about interiors. I know that there are not that many Tan/Tan 1963 combo's but there are no numbers that I can find to tell us how many for sure. People say that now Green is not a good color but in 1967 it was the number one color. So go figure.
I'm one of the younger guys and firmly believe earlier generations had better taste in colors, but then again I'm the guy that goes looking for a Corvette and Torch Red is on the list of color I won't consider.

there was also Mosport Green which was a rare color as well.. only made 2311 of them and ran for only one year. It came in either black or dark green interior.

Nice looking car and color, I'm just not into green. Looking for a good photo of the elusive 1966 Trophy Blue vert with a dark blue interior. In all my years going to the Kissimmee NCRS meet and the Daytona Turkey Day Rod Runs I have never seen one close up.

There was a guy at the local cruise in this weekend with a recently restored trophy blue car with dark blue interior. I had never seen one and it was very nice-looking. I can imagine it would be outstanding as a convertible with a white top.
