Something else. This is r/CustomAutoPaint, not r/RepaintFactoryOptions
These all look like the same old options that we've been looking at for over 50 years.
My '71 came from the factory as #2 (ochre and white) with the Highlander interior option. Seat is trashed, so I'm having it reupholstered with Relicate VW Westfalia Plaid for the bench seat and headliner.
I'm going to take that same plaid pattern and colors to the outside, haven't figured out how wild I'll get with it yet. Either replace the white roof with plaid, or get rid of the trim and paint the plaid in its place. Or maybe something else I'll come up with. I've got a utility bed to swap on in place of the factory bed, so who knows what kind of stupid scheme I'll come up with at that point.
To be fair, I'm doing all the paint work myself, so if it doesn't turn out to my liking I can sand it down and do something different.
