So since its a clone... I have color options? This is like 2 years away but what is the "ultimate" color combo for a regal?

I keep coming up with alot of "NFL" team colors which i dont really want.

Red and Black?  red stripe on white car?

Is there a list of the colours that were available for your car? I only have the Canuck colour sheet...

I've always been partial to copper/black. I am going to paint my '57 Windsor in those colors.

I am with Sid, a color combo using the subtle pastels have far more "WOW" power
when it all combines with a great body than loud colors. Loud colors are excessive and
just look trashy, ... or flashy for flashy sake. Cars like these don't need loud colors to
show off.

The top image looks a lot like the spring color "Frosted Turquois" - very nice. I don't know if that's what the Frostbite was aiming for.
Combinations with metallic gold might look nice - although they might turn out looking like you just missed the copper color.

I keep thinking silver, copper, or gold - but I am not wild about silver. Sand metallic is close to copper, but not right for this car.
Eggshell with Paris Rose Metallic accents might be nice...

Dad had a '57 Royal Lancer 4HT in Turquois and black. It sure got a lot of attention and favorable comments. It would be one of my favorites but it's your car and your money, so I suggest you paint it the way you want it - you are the one to satisfy! The car will still be a beauty.

No I will im just trying to get suggestions, I like the aqua.

I find it helps to see the car before hand complete to get motivated I hate going "well the body work is done... What color should I paint it". I want that determined well before I start.

I agree because you are often painting the floors, cowl & dash long before you get the exterior bodywork done. You also need to order fabric etc a long time ahead.

Now, there is an interesting car! 58 Dodge, with 57 or VERY early 58 mirrors, a Regal grill medallion and 58 (not Regal) hood ornaments!!!

Someone had a neat bag of parts along with the fortitude to paint the headlight doors and enter it and win in an AACA show. Great story and I like the colours!!

Moonstone Grey (a very warm grey) and Metallic Charcoal almost black) were the colors of my Grandpa's CRL hardtop... very understated and classy. Since 1957 I've never seen another '57 hardtop in that combo. If I can ever find and buy a '57 4 dr hardtop like his it would be painted that color.

Perhaps I'm wrong, I thought Regal Lancers were only available in copper/black or copper/white?
