Here are the '64 Pontiac color chips along with listed interior colors.
My first choice would be Sunfire Red Poly with Parchment interior.

+1 Agree. Sunfire red poly (metallic coral) is very nice on this car too.
Pinehurst green poly is a light metallic green...very nice also. The color chip shown doesn't do it justice at all. A friend had a 64 Pontiac 2drht in this color with black interior; it was a very pretty car.
Not sure if this will be popular with my colleagues...I would display my GP model(s) next to the '61 Pontiacs that you will be issuing. Therefore I would wish the colours of the Grand Prix to be contrasting, complimentary but different than the Catalinas.
Interesting point. I display my models by model year; never really thought why......
Jack, I bet folks have all sorts of different criteria. I used to display them by make with years consecutively getting more current. Now, since I tend to display them in a particular period, usually on a car lot, I tend to group them by make so, likely there is an early '60's GM dealer coming to my shelf!
If you show them by years, does that mean you'd have say, a '63 Ford next to a '63 Chevrolet, etc.?
Singapore Gold Poly with Parchment interior
Marimba red and Yorktown blue.
+2.
Saint Clair Shores, Michigan
Two good choices.
PICs: To my eye, Marimba Red and Nocturne Blue are the two most classic.

I like the white interior on this one. It would show all the great detail Sergio's models are noted for.

+1 Excellent choices. Anyone know the pre-order procedure on Sergio's website?
Yes, that's right...various makes placed by year. The obvious problem with doing this of course is that when a new model is added the "shuffle" begins.......lol. Nonetheless I do like them displayed this way. I really like your "dealership" theme though...very cool.
