How about dark blue with tan interior?  maybe a two-tone with tan/dune beige roof?  You could have the Bill Blass Designer Edition Imperial

Thanks to all who offered opinions.  I like the combination of dark green 
with the tan interior (I have a 98 Sebring convertible in approximately 
those colors).  I hadn't considered that combination, but I am now thinking 
about it (though, I don't know if I want to cars of those colors).  Does 
anyone out there have a 64-66 (I would even consider a few years earlier or 
later) in this color combination that would be willing to send me some 
pictures?

My wife is partial to the original color.  I don't mind that color, but as 
long as I have to repaint (the car definitely needs a repaint, along with 
many other things), I would like to make it a car that I would have been 
likely to have purchased new.  I probably wouldn't have chosen dune 
beige.  Shortly after I got the car, noticed some paint flaking off one of 
the rear doors.  Under the white paint, was a metallic blue (I am not sure 
which color, it could be silver turquoise poly or nassau blue poly, or some 
other similar color), but I really like color.  However I am not sure if 
that color will go with my tan interior.  Does anyone have an Imperial in 
this color scheme?  If so I would love to see pictures.

Thanks,
