CUTLASS 83 cutlass Color suggestions ?

[nycutlass]

this g body i want to keep all stock looking on the outside. i think I'm just going to make my life simple and keep it the original color, tops i would do is 2 tone with white on top and beige on bottom . i just want something that no one else has. I ( we ) all invested a lot time on this and i appreciate everyone input.

Go with the color codes on your body plate, that way they will match. Unless you don't care for now, but a matching plate to the actual color is a plus!

Paint it the light briar brown. If you cant stand the way it looks and lose interest you can give it to me. 😉

I had a '84 Cutlass Brougham. Pastel or Frost (can't remember the name offhand, with dark sable (briar brown) vinyl roof and interior. Looked great. I'd go with that or two-tone dark & light sable , dark up to the factory pin stripe and light from there.

Well, guys, I got my car back from paint! This is the result of what we discussed. I would like to thank those who have helped and put their time into this with me. I was a bit nervous picking these colors. I have never seen them before put together like this on any other car or internet. but I wanted something different, and I did achieve that with no question in my mind, down to the custom-painted pinstripe. let me know what you guys think of my parts car lol

Looks great! I always prefer the lower part of a 2 tone job to be darker because it just looks natural given how shadows work. Your paint choice is pleasing to my eyes if nothing else, and I really dig the orange stripe. I had actually considered going with an orange one on my black car.

Your paint's fading on top. Might want to get that repaint done soon. 🙂

J/K. Looks good. Nice and subtle paint break with the pinstripe. Not too in-your-face, but makes the transition smoother.

Looks like they did a great job on the paintwork. Lucky.
