Default Re: Chevelle updates

The car does have an interior already, good ol' basic black.

Royal Plum was actually on the consideration list a few years ago (as were Emerald Turquoise and Butternut Yellow), but I just couldn't bring myself to go for it.

My first `67 SS Chevelle (the $200.00 beater I had nearly 30 years ago that's shown on my website at the beginning of "The Chevelle Project" section) was originally Emerald Turquoise, and that is one of my favorite colors on a `67 Chevelle...but as is the case with Marina Blue, Black, and Red, while they are all beautiful colors, there's a gazillion of them out there already.

That's the other factor that stands out so much for me about Deepwater---you just don't see that color very often.

FWIW, the weather broke a little bit and I got a bit of a look a little while ago of the two latest possibilities. While I still can't say for certain until I actually see them in good light, Deepwater is still at the top of the list.
