Nick;
You will no doubt hear from others as well is: It's YOUR car!
Have fun with it! My car is almost ready for primer, too, and
I'll be changing from Pimento to something with a bit more
"snap" to it: a red metallic found on some newer Jags and
even on some other recent Ford products. Pick a color *you*
like. If you're driving it to be an expression of you, that's
what's important. I gave up trying to make the car suitable
for someone else's tastes maybe and someday. That, to me,
wasn't realistic. But, it's your call!
