The official main colors for Cobra 427 were : Red, Maroon, White, Charcoal, Guardsman Blue, Silver, Ivy Green. (from the book "Shelby American World Registry")
For 289, the options were the same plus "Princess Blue" and Black instead of Charcoal.
I think the most popular was Blue with white stripes.
Mine used to be Viking Blue with white stripes. It is now metalflakes Sapphire (Royal) Blue with metalflkakes Abalone stripes.
