colored or not ? (dash )

My '69 Cutlass convert, was all Green, about 6 different shades of green, inside and out. I'will paint it yellow with black interior. I had planned on painting the the firewall black, along with the area where the wipers are, inside, the upper and lower dash areas also blck with no yellow inside the car. BUT, today I looked at a '69 Chevelle ..., they painted it blue, also the firewall, wiper area, and the dash upper and lowers blue , looks kinda good ! So, question; whose color scheme is correct ? Who's is original ? If your car is colored, Blue, Yellow or maybe white, whatever , what do you have ?

Black interior should have a black dash (upper and lower). Firewall should be black as well.

If interior is white then dash and carpet and console are black. Firewall is black no matter what the color of the rest of the car (unless you have a Mopar - then they paint the firewall body color!)
