I am currently restoring a ford panel 1940ish with a chopped top (im also building it curbside due to lost pieces)

the color or this truck will be metallic green on gold wheels,what color should i use to complement the green and the wheels, im really blocked with this (im thinking about too many colors)!

thank you for helping me!

For the interior?
For trim?

A lighter shade of the main color is a classis combination.
:p

forget to say for what it was, it's for the upper part of the body :icon16:

If the green is dark enough, I'd go black. But I have no imagination.

if there is a thick trim strip in the middle of
the car like there is on a 57 chevy. you
could go lighter green on top darker green
on the bottom and bmf to hide the paint
seam. then tan for the inside
thats what i would do
