Bill Cushenberry, Darryl Starbird, Carl Casper....you could push it even crazier and you'd be in good company. The trick is to stop short of "too much", like these guys maybe should have:
How dare you include the Turbo Vette in that group. That thing is incredible! But in all seriousness, it could do with a little refinement. I recently scored one that is all taken apart for a restore.

The Scoop is an excellent addition. I personally like a Silver Grey or a Light Silver Blue for contrasting interior color. IMO it wouldn't pull you eyes away from the body mods like red could.

Gary, I think the red should pop and look good. Since it's a radical custom I think you want the interior to stand out from the body but not distract from the bodywork. A white pearl might work or Paul's silver-gray idea. A pearlizer over silver-gray might work, but you'd need to try it on some scrap to be sure.

I like the red interior idea (I keep seeing it in 70s crushed velvet/velour) but maybe a pearl silver-grey would be less eye-stabbing. Either would look sweet with red-line tires!

I don't know about anyone else, but seeing that purple can lid under the body makes me think it would look really good as the interior color.

Hmmmm, maybe it's providence. I kinda like the purple myself. Gary

So, being a newbie here, I have to say that purple would look awesome, as does the whole vette!!

That purple would look good! Less aggressive than straight red.

The interior will be purple! I agree with y'all! Still gotta work on the body's paint to smooth it out. The rocker trim sorta looks like a stock midyear Vette in style. Hosted on FotkiHosted on Fotki
