Only one this list can I feel good about the tan with oxidized resprayed brown centre on my westy. Unfortunetly, the respray of the lower tan has this weird salmon tinge to it. Certainly though, on any other car, the colour would be important to me, but on a Volkswagen, it is the car that's important. Thus I put the respray off till make some extra money and simply enjoy my westy. BTW, what is the official colour called that was on the late 60's and (perhaps) the early 70's that was a sort of grey tan? That may be what my westy will wear in the future.
