Re-doing interior... need suggestions...

Here's my deal... I am currently resto/modding the interior of my 64 Chevy truck. The original theme was gonna be black and white. Well over the months I've kinda started leaning away from that, but I have no idea what else to paint the sheet metal. Whatever color I pick REALLY stands out the second I open the door or hell even just looking through the windows. Here's what I have so far...



Ideas? I was thinking maybe doing black vinyl and silver through out? Or black and ????? I have the drivers door partially repaired and in white so tomorrow I'll hold up the upholstered black door panel next to it and snap a pic. But I need some ideas people.

OE colors?? Fawn or silver/grey works well. The modern equivalent is Taupe (Tope) for the Fawn.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
