Anybody Classy
1.Does anybody have a Classy two-tone paint job?
2.Has anybody with the lt oak and black interior mixed and matched these two colors? Don't know how to describe. Ex... black leather inserts into lt. oak seats; lt. oak door handle on black door skins; do you know what I mean???

Hi nate -
Be patient - it's the weekend.
Some folks actually go outside and enjoy the nice weather...as long as they have a wireles connection
Here is a pic of one that I always thought was a good color combo - although I am not 100% sold on two-tone....
I have also seen cars with the coves painted like a classic 50's vette - that can look good.
The PFYC blue/yellow car is also very nice -
best regards -

Take a look at the Vette Essentials Gallery. You'll see some good examples of interior combos. In terms of paint jobs, I seen members who have accented their paint jobs with Ghost Flames and Striping. Hope this helps.

p.s. I have another one at home where I was asked to match the Marlboro Maroon from a C2 onto a C5 in two tone. I'll put it up later tonight.

Here is the original that the two tone work was based on. This is an actual paint job, not a photoshop.
Here is a photoshop. The color is taken from a 1967 color called Marlboro Maroon Metallic. I simply traded off the red from above and color matched the '67 color.
