Art & Inspiration So, what's your favorite FACTORY 2 tone color combo?

1982 Continental , black / maroon. I used this on my 49 Hudson

 

I'm partial to the tri-tones of the mid fifties.

But then I'm also a bit color blind, so ....

 

Can you have more than two colors?

 

Love this choice! looks like a Christmas ornament. Paint is ornamental after all.
My wife, who has trouble choosing a color for anything, would paint our car with ALL the colors, similar to that one, which is why I choose which colors we use.

 

I like the color of our Ford, but my wife doesn't like it,,

 

Enjoyed my tutone blue 57 Pontiac and loved my 48 with factory metallic "blue lake blue" and "oyster gray" paint.

 

where is this car For Sale at? Price? thanks

 

another nice factory two tone

 

Not to forget the ''up-and-coming'' hot rodders....no drivers license yet, but.....not to worry! The smiling kid needs to watch those chrome bumpers...mirror might help! I'm I'm partial to the ''white & black'' wrecker colors On the job, and ready for service!!!...spiffy up the workplace and so-forth with a nice original color combo

 

I like the side panel on this car

 

My favorite
1957 Chevrolet paint code 812
Surf green top
Highland green body

 

3 tone (four if you count the top) I love this.

 

I was always somewhat partial to the copper Chevy color from 57, add a nice off white top and it works. My favorite OEM combination is from an O/T era, but I could see it on one of "ours" if the size and shape was right. MOPAR had a copper that when combined with a black vinyl top and rally stripes on a big 'B' body Dodge, well it's a pretty classy look. Think a richer version of the Chrysler Turbine car. A 2nd choice so close that you'd measure the gap with a feeler gauge would have to be the "Tiger Gold" special order GTO for 65, but it must have a black vinyl top to finish it off. Fuzzt tiger tail hanging out of the trunk, optional. And, 65 GTOs are welcome here so don't bag me too much.

I'm working on a '65 Tempest in gold with a black top right now. Top is painted black though. And I do dig the Hurst mags and redlines.

 

Won't get any flack from me, '65 is my favorite goat (and acceptable within the parameters here).
Guy had an all gold one here when I was a young punk. Sharp w/chrome reverse.

 

I think it's a '31 color scheme on my '32 ............ but I like it.

 

Highlander, I'm sportin a little wood over that goat. Schwwwiinnnggg!

 

For me it doesn't get any better than early 30s Ford Rock Moss Green and Black fenders!!!

 

The 57 dodge 2dr two tones were just magic.

 

Horizon Blue and India Ivory

 

when I was a kid, there was an immaculate '67 Chevelle or possibly Beamont at the end of my grandmothers street this colour combo, with black rally wheels. Guy also owned a grey '69 Z-28 with ansens on it, would have been almost a new car at the time. He was a young guy living at home, must have been pretty bucks up for a young kid.

 

My favorite 2tone:

 

This makes me feel a little light in the loafers but I have always liked this color combo on a Thunderhawk. They have several variations of it between '55 and '59 and called it everything from Salmon to Coral but I still like it on the right car.

 

Cadet Blue Metallic and Capri Blue

 

I like the colors on my wife's 57 .

 

Its hard to beat Black/Black.

Gary

 

Fordor Ron hit the nail on the head for me. That '55 BelAir. That has always been my favorite. Thats the first combo I think of when someone mentions two tone.

 

My favorite combo is black and chrome. Almost anything looks good dressed in black and the chrome sets it off. And of course whitewalls, and the proper rake, and, and, and.....
