There are a lot of colors that look great on these cars, but one requirement for me is that it is a color that looks like it would have been available in the mid 60s when Cobras were new. My other ERA was Guardsman Blue with Wimbledon White stripes, so that probably rules out blue. The narrow hipped CSX3130 is black and maybe the most beautiful 427 car in the world, so that pushes me that way. I love red, but my '66 Mustang GT convertible is Candyapple Red. That said, Porsche's Carmine Red is darker and might be perfect. BRG and '66 Ivy Green are great colors too.
