I like how someone scrawled "CRG" on the build sheet like to say "yes. it really is supposed to be silver with a green interior".

Very interesting car.

I would have questioned it on the line, if I were the assembly man that day  :Twocents:

Considering the green shade in A4, and it being the era of earthy tones, this isn't all that surprising. I can't wait to turn my green interior to black though!

I would love to talk to the original owner and ask him why he chose that color combo. I'm lucky to have talked to the original owners of both my cars. I learned a lot from them. In the case of my triple green F3 car, he said he chose the color because he liked it. Upon arrival he removed the hubcaps and replaced with chrome reverse wheels and baby moons. When I got the car circa 1982, it had slots. He also said he wanted  A/C and a 4-spd with the 440 and Dodge said, he couldn't have both and would have to choose. He chose the 4-spd. Sweet! Also, he chose the 440 over the Hemi because he was afraid no one locally could work on the Hemi. He thought it was too exotic for where he lived (rural TN just north of Chattanooga).   I've been told how ugly my F3 car is since day one of ownership and that  should paint it red, black, orange with a flag, etc. But, we have a history together, so it will stay F3 Green.

Still, I'm not sure what was running through the mind of the original owner of the A4 car, that's not a normal combo one would think of with a Silver exterior.

Silver with green interior was actually a recommended color combination, see the page at the link below.

They recommended every color but tan? Who put that chart together? Homer Simpson?

Silver & green combinations exist in nature, there are several species of fish as an example.

The colors do not clash, but some peoples perceptions of them do?

It's funny how perceptions change. Today, on the Corvette, one can order silver over tan (Kalahari) interior.  And if you want wild combos, you can order those, too. But they require an RPO of D30, which is a $595 charge to "override" normal combos.   As I said, perceptions - and styles change over time.

Dino

They also didn't recommend cream exterior with red interior or yellow with tan...weird.

Homerr

I've always been perplexed why tan interior was not recommended with red/bright red exterior.

Come on!

I like it! I wonder if the dash came out in the resto. Note green dash paint overspray on the VIN tag.
