Goto page 1, 2  Next EvanKon Sat Nov 07, 2009 3:43 pm Hey all - I Have an opportunity to get all of the bodywork (including the rust around the windshield...woohoo) and re-paint done on my '69 Westy. The original color is pearl white - however, I want to make it two-tone (cloud white upper). What color would you suggest or want if you had this chance? VDubTech Sat Nov 07, 2009 3:51 pm What difference does it make what any of us would do with the paint? Paint it whatever color your little heart desires. Asking what color everyone here would paint it is pretty pointless. :roll: EZ Gruv Sat Nov 07, 2009 3:52 pm Teal with pink scallops; end of thread. hazetguy Sat Nov 07, 2009 4:03 pm pink with teal scallops; end of thread. EZ Gruv Sat Nov 07, 2009 4:05 pm There is also the elusive...scallop with pink teals. End of thread! aopisa Sat Nov 07, 2009 4:07 pm pinkish teal with a side dish of scallops, end of thread. Rusty O'Toole Sat Nov 07, 2009 4:12 pm This is a good question. All the stock VW colors look equally blah. But non stock colors never look right on a VW. So what can you do?Has anyone figured out this conundrum? SGKent Sat Nov 07, 2009 4:29 pm yes go scallop with pink fringes Kirk Sat Nov 07, 2009 4:36 pm Scalloped potatoes, End of Thread. jtauxe Sat Nov 07, 2009 5:04 pm Such a bunch of sarcastic folk we have today. Geez! Are you going to remove the interior and paint that, too? If not, I'd stick with the original color. White is always nice, anyway. It goes with anything. :) busdaddy Sat Nov 07, 2009 5:10 pm Stock never goes out of style. onion456 Sat Nov 07, 2009 5:11 pm i like shrimp cocktail better than scallops. Batan Sat Nov 07, 2009 5:31 pm I don't usually like white on cars but on some it looks great - one of them being the Bus. That said, which two-tone are you going for, the proper '69 from the gutters up or the later style? busdaddy Sat Nov 07, 2009 5:41 pm Puce, with Chartreuse scallops 8) jbbrown Sat Nov 07, 2009 5:47 pm Thanks guys. I needed a good laugh-which I certainly got here. End of Thread. :lol: :lol: EvanKon Sat Nov 07, 2009 5:53 pm OK, I get it - I guess it was a stupid question :( We all get at least one of them, right?? lol... Thread done... chabanais Sat Nov 07, 2009 7:09 pm My Bus is Sierra Yellow, which I've grown to like. I've always liked Niagara Blue, however. When I get my Bus re-painted next year, however, I'm going with Imola Orange Pearl on the bottom and Pearl White on the top. purplegodzilla Sat Nov 07, 2009 7:13 pm You know talk about color.
