The white paint doesn't do much for this car, but it seems to be a really nice one.

Why do people paint cars white? To hide bad body work ....... that car was a stunner in the original shade.

. White cars have no character

-This car was originally deep metallic bronze with a white pinstripe - So why paint it white.

I thought I answered that

Or maybe he just didn't like brown...

Now you're just being silly

that car was a stunner in the original shade. White cars have no character

what color was it originally? the ad doesn't say. And you are right, I ought to just se!! my boring white car and go with something more spiffy

I like the white and would chose it over several colors when ordering new. This car looks great in this combo.

all these converts on here make my hardtops look bad

 

[detmatt]

I think the looks of a hardtop is hard to beat. I like to drive a convertible as much as anybody else but the hard tops are more pleasing to the eye In my opinion. I will say that some of the forward looks look there best with he soft top up or down.

The trouble with the MOPAR "white" cars is that they are not white. They are Spinnaker White which has a yellow tone to them.
True white looks dazzling on these cars but then it wouldn't be original.

The ad does say.
If you want to sell the white car because of lack of character, thats o.k. I have been rolling around the idea of selling the Orange car. I have located a few original convertibles tucked away that would afford me the opportunity to buy one of those and get my other convertible close.....
We can talk .........E mail me

 

[commando1]

WAIT!! This is for sale?

 

[polara71]

Is that what I said?

 

[detmatt]

Sure sounds that way.

 

[bluefury361]

White cars have no character...........

IMHO....That statement is as far off the mark as can be.

the original color, (sounds like it was T5 copper), is a beautiful color and this car should have been redone in it.

That being said.....

White will complement a great design more then any other paint as well as being very elegant. Color will mask a less then good design.

What dosen't work on this car is the brown interior. No matter what the exterior shade is.

 

[polara71]

Any other color interior wouldnt have helped except white, which would have made the bronze color even more stunning.

 

[Fratzog]

Is that what I said?

Give your head a shake.

 

[detmatt]

I like the tan interior because its not black.
