While I liked the two tone colors of the Tri-Five cars like the 55 Belaire, I think the 61 - 64 cars look better as a solid color... but everyone has their own taste.

Mines all white, but there's a nice two tone '62 on ebay right now. A different color but I like it.

This site shows all of the 1963 exterior colors, along with the two-tone color combinations available for that year.
I, personally, like the two-tone look on a '63. Of course, I'm a little partial because my car (my great grandfather's) was two-tone and will be repainted the original colors someday. Mine was originally Monaco Blue (navy, basically) on the bottom and Silver Blue for the roof. I love it.
That's the best pic I have of my car from when it had its original colors. I have no clue who that woman is, either!

I like my red 64 SS convertible with a white top, and my blue 64 2-dr post is going back the original blue with white top.
