I don't think it's going to look right with green and white mixed interior pieces (keeping green dash dash, A-pillar, etc.), therefore my vote would be to stick with Green. I really admire cars with non-black or non-white interiors as they are 1) less common, and 2) more difficult to maintain and match colors when restoring.

Ain't that the truth.....I got parchment interior in my Duster. It not quite white and not quite gold. It's a b*tch to find stuff for. I voted for green for your C500 btw ;)

Ok, thanks gents.  :cheers:

I definitely think the white looks better, but due to the car having the original numbers drive train, color and fender tag, keeping it the correct factory color does appeal to me. I'm not going down the road of restoring to exact factory specs with everything, but she will be pretty close. The main things I'm replacing from stock are good Edelbrock IAS shocks, new US radiators high efficiency radiator (black not alluminium) aftermarket exhaust and front SSBC discs upgraded from front drums (these SSBC kits are pretty similar to a Bendix factory type).
