    Best C3 Color Combinations? (is there are poll already?)

    For Bumper Cars, what's the Best Color Combiniation in your opinion?

    I'm going with Black / Red Interior, then maybe Red / Black Interior.

      Even though I lean towards blue cars, I think the red/black combo on a chrome bumper C3 is real sharp.

        Without a doubt international blue with a dark blue interior, kinda rare but stands out above all else. Sorry but it was only available in '68.

          Taste change with time but the most popular color back in '68 was British Green.

            Brands Hatch Green in 71 with the dark saddle leather interior.
            It was on the sales brochure and it changed my mind.

            Walked in and bought one.

            Nowadays...corvettes should be red,yellow,or blue.

            except for Lynn and Tom's Night race blue GS.

              I've owned 3 of them. Cortez Silver, Laguna Gray and Steel Cities Gray. All with black interior. As far as I'm concerned, there are no other colors.

                      I have to agree with Richard - LeMans Blue with a bright blue interior especially when you add some accessories for a splash of color.

                        Even though my 68 Coupe is LeMans Blue with Bright Blue Interior the best color combo in any vehicle
                        is Black / Red Interior just like you picked. IMHO--Larry

                            I may be biased,...but
                            Elkhart green with saddle interior (Elkhart green was the 2nd most popular color ordered for 1972 after Ontario orange)
                            you could also order the black interior, but I think the saddle compliments the green better.

                              LeMans Blue with Black or blue int.

                              Was there ever black ext and bright blue int combos? I'd imaging that could be sharp looking!!
