Ok so you've got a custom or modified Morris minor and you don't want to paint it in one of the original colours. What colour does everyone thinks looks best. Show off pictures of your Morris. I can't decide on a colour.

VW Aqua blue or black voilet, or maybe even Oak green, all metallics, but great colours. Examples of these are posted on the other site

My first commission was on a BRG Fiat TC traveller, nice colour but not the best against wood.

How about silver?
I know it's a common car colour now but it should high light the curves nicely :)

I love a nice dark metallic blue on a modified classic, looks fantastic.
Like this cortina I saw in Retroford;

I think Powder blue, St Patrick's blue or Indigo would look cool. (Little bias in my love of blue in general.)
