Okay, stupid question time ;D . Since I decided to change my mind on outside color to yelloworange , I need to know what you think about interior color. I have a whole set brown seats that are pretty nice ( nicer than the picture shows ). Do you think they will look okay with this outside color ? Should I find something else ? Tell me what you think ! You won't hurt my feelings :'( if you express your opinion. THANK YOU :)

I would have to vote for something other than brown . That seat does look really good but not with the orange . I would suggest black , charcoal , grey , silver , navy , white or orange .

Well I was thinking brown went with everything. Like you can wear brown socks with your dress shoes or tennis shoes kind of thing. If you wear your brown socks outside with no shoes and they get dirty you can hardly notice either. But I would vote for black seats myself.

Brown, it looks cool next to your paint:cool:
Isn't it amazing, a woman will spend all her time in the sun and in the tanning booth. So they can get brown to catch a Man. And when they catch that man all the man wants is there white spots.

Sorry, just drove 480 miles %) %) %) Losing my mind.

Nice seat IMO it looks good next to the sweet color.

I already have the black seats to go with my rig when I use the same orange color as you;D (or Chrome yellow I can't make up my mind)

Brown will be unique:eek:

My Bronco was originally a yellow/orange color and had the brown/houndstooth interior (Ranger Package).

I'm with Curly - seats same color as trim. My preference is black, but white looks good with Orange.

I've got some stock off-white seats that I'm replacing if interested.

But I wouldn't use the shorter seat either. I prefer having the headrest in case some yahoo tries to see if he can drive under my rig. %) %)

Just be happy that you have seats in good condition. My seats suck! Who cares about the color......if you don't like, put some seat covers on 'em. But i guess to answer your question.....i dont' think you could go wrong with any color.

White - with Orange plaid inserts. I have no idea where mine came from (PO or PPO) but I like the way they look with the Orange body and White top.

I would go with black seats, unless you plan on running it topless a lot. Think BBQed cojones. White would look OK too, but I'm biased against anything that could be mistaken as University of TN colors.

The brown seats remind me of that nasty Jeep brown, sorry.%)

Didn't mention it on your earlier post, but that color looks AWESOME! Keep up the great work, and be sure to post pics to keep the rest of us motivated.

And yup, even the rear bench matches...! If you can find someone to do the cloth for you I'd do something like this to tie all your colors together...

Brown ... all I can say is "Vamatamos" ... translated means "we all vomit". Go with something more neutral like charcoal.

2Bad,

I am going with the Lt. Gray in the Orange '74. I set them in it today and it looks good. Got to weld some brackets on them to mount them though. I'll send you pic of the Gray as soon as I can.
Black or white also looks good. Not sure about the brown. Man, you are really movin on that thing. Looks absolutely great.

White will show the dirt. Black allways looks good but get very hot when sitting in the sun. Brown is good, you got it use it. Looks nice in mine, mine is more orange. Consulting a color wheel, brown is a "tone" of the yellow-orange. It is achieved by mixing varying amounts of colors that are opposite each other on the color wheel. When creating tones you are actually lowering the saturation, or intensity, of the original pure colors.
