Default What color convertible top?

My 67 289 convertible is one shade darker than vintage burgundy (metallic). The top of it is in great shape (installed in 1974!) but I'm not a big fan of the color. What color would you replce it with on this car? My instinct is telling me "Black" but I wonder if that's gonna look too dark...And no, my car doesn't sag like the picture makes it look. My driveway is uneven...

You are right, the tan looks out of place. Maybe a white?

its a tough one isn't it??? 67 convertibles came in black or white tops...I almost think black would be too black and white would be too white...strange, just can't decide! I like a stock looking car.

Couple more pics if these will help you get a feel of the color of the car. Lighting is bad, hard to really see the color
