It's green. F'ing ugly green.

Fine on a B-Body but E-Bodies call out for a high impact colour IMHO.

Jims' Cuda is the one I would have. Love the painted white roof option on it.

Yes steve the plum one is jim,s car, minter
as i get older i really do not mind the more bland colours on muscle cars it makes a nice change from the impact colours i thiunk,

Yeah, thats a gorgeous car, and the only stock hemi car ive ever seen in the flesh

funny how a car that stunning and rare is worth, say $120k and the 71 ragtop, which is rarer admittedly but not any better quality, is worth 30 times more

If I had the money, I would be all over English68s red cuda like a cheap suit

I disagree pete everyone paints there cars bright impact colours even if they were not when new, i just like to see the base colours on them,
in the jensen world everyone paints them blue,,,,,,,,,,,, why 70,ss mustards n browns n beiges,

the older i get the more i think the manufactures did a pretty good job with these cars cept 14" piant wheels and poverty steel wheels

Heres a nice sand pebble beige 383 for you Pete....

I am probably traumatised by the fact that my father owned a Green Volvo estate and a taupe and beige Wolseley..........

I would never own a green car, hate them, regardless of make.

For a daily driver you can't beat Silver - well, millions of people would seem to agree with that. That's right, we are all individuals....

I think these old cars ARE about showing off and standing out, so most of the high impact colours work for me...apart from Sassy Grass GREEN, and (surprisingly) In-Violet / Plum Crazy....not sure I would be THAT comfortable with Moulin Rouge though...

That's actually a nice light colour. Better than white (which I hate the most).

I have to agree with you there Pete be loud and proud, but I do love sub lime.

I like that in green, I would choose that over any hi impact colour, wheels would have to go though. I think these cars are about whatever you want them to be about, there are no rules. To me nothing shouts louder than understatement, I'll take Keira Knightley, you can keep your Jodie Marsh....
