Default Cameo ivory white body with black interior

Hi guys I知 starting to wonder if I made a bad decision? My car was originally the dark maroon color with black interior. I had all the seats and door panels reupholstered black like it was original. I decided to go with white paint on outside not to exactly replicate a super duty but just decided I like it better than dark maroon. Does anyone have pictures of this combination? I think the top of the dashboard would be more of a satin black. If I知 correct then a glossy black underneath that top of dash area where the radio and glovebox I think the glossy black would be on top of the door above the panels. If I知 going with white exterior does the complete radiator support stay white? Or do I paint that a satin black just where the radiator support and side panels are? I scoured the Internet for pictures and can稚 find anybody who has done this combo. Must be somebody?? Pics would help a lot. Thank you sorry stupid questions but I知 good for that.

Thank you transaxle. That was the color and interior that my car came originally. I知 starting to think that my car is going to look like some sort of squad car. Now I wish I did the blue interior that the super duties had. I was wondering if any white cars had a black interior in 1963. ? I知 going to paint the firewall and inner fenders white and was wondering if the all of the radiator support including the left and right side panels right behind the headlight are they painted white or black. I do see pictures of the top of the radiator support painted black.

Not sure about what color combos were offered in 63, in Norwalk, I have seen white 63's with red or blue interiors.. Only black interior 63's I have seen are the one I previously shared, a custom yellow convertible and a orange coupe.
.
As for the radiator support, I have seen all are painted black, SD clones and factory stock with body color firewall and fender wells.

My car was white with black interior in a former life. I didn't like the Marimba Red when I purchased the car, it was faded bad so I painted it white.
