Default Vote on interior color for white 1968 convertible

Just had my 68 convertible painted Wimbledon white and am trying to decide on the interior.

Choices between:

Red
Light/dark blue
Black
White
Aqua

All oem colors

The car will have a white top and gt wheels.

Right now im learning towards the blue as I think it fits the car best, plus I'm interested in blue strip. The car was originally dark green on black, so although I'm changing the colors, I'm trying to keep it ford original.

Avoid red. Black with red is sharp. White with red reminds me of something that I care not disclose.

I'd go with aqua or black.

I would do a lighter color upholstery with dark appts./ carpet, dash pad, etc. Black seats would get pretty hot in a vert.

I think a dark blue with white inserts pony style would look great.

White car with an aqua would be ****.

I guess in NY it wouldn't be so bad if you have a black interior.

The turquoise (aqua) interior would look great especially if you did the turquoise/white pony. My top picks would be:

Turquoise
Dark Blue
Red

Black would be okay if you could get black/white pony. I don't think it was original, but I heard that it's available now.
