While I am starting to consider painting my car this winter (about time) I have been thinking of doing a traditional silver car with. Red interior, like all the other cArs.
I remember seeing the red interior Craig had in a black car, sadly he sold that interior already.. Has anyone seen a silver car with red interior? Any pics? Does it look ok? |

Does it look ok? I am doing our silver car now, with a red plaid interior. Come to think of it I saw a '75 about a year ago that had that treatment. But, I don't have any pictures. |

I think it'll look good the only caveat being what shade of red you chose.

Here's a link to an old advert for a silver/red RHD '72 for sale in Australia:

That Australia one poses a good question.
When trying to do a silver red Porsche car, do you change the dash to red? Carpets red also? |

Cool one john, don't like the seats though and it's making my think the interior needs to be silver and red only, with no black.

Silver can be a great color. I remember one 550 that I saw that had u dertones of gold in the right light.
The red interiors can be overdone. Think more subtle like 280SL rather than Corvette.. |

The nice thing about black upper surfaces on the dash is that they would reflect less in the windshield . . .
but red and silver could be nice too, depending on how one would do the dash:  |
