    What's your color?

    Here is the opening to a brief article in the June issue of Car and Driver about the most popular car colors:

    "Last Year, according to auto-industry paint giant PPG, white was the most popular car color in North America for the fourth year running. Before white took the top spot, America clutched silver to her steely heart for a full decade. Add up black, white, gray, and silver, and you've accounted for the paint jobs on 72 percent of new cars sold in 2014 - nearly three in four are, essentially, colorless. C'mon people."

    Ya, c'mon people!....here are a few of my fav's...the first is my Mexico Blue '75... The others are favorites I have saved from other postings. Lets see your color!

    I'll play: light yellow with a brown & gold stripe thrown on (in the 80's of course).
