I would like to see some pictures of A bodies that are a unusual color.I know Plum Crazy was a seldom seen color in the day but now everyone paints their car Plum Crazy.Looking for colors unpopular,ugly,or uncommon.

I will start..Mine is light tan metallic.Not the best color in the world but I like it.It is a uncommon color and easy to keep clean.Maybe it was more common back in the day but everyone has painted over the color now....LOL

Mines B7 Blue (Jamaica Blue Metallic). Seems like everybody has B5 or petty if their car is blue...

B7 one of my all time favorite colors.But you just do not see that color that often.
 
How about white? I don't think they're seen that often on older cars unless their used on some sort of two-toned 50's Bel Air or a stripe of some sort.

 
How about Rusto-leum white? Don't believe any of them came from the factory that way!!! It always attracts attention, I guess because it is so... clean & bright?

I like all the gold and greenish-gold or brownish-gold colors. I'd rather see one of those colors on a car than the typical Plum Crazy, Vitamin C, LimeLight, etc (though I like those colors also).

My 72 is GA4 Light Gunmetal Metallic. Don't see it often, and really a beautiful color. It's very light metallic blue, I'd call it a little more blue than silver.
 
I had a 71 Sebring that was Tawney Gold, like this but this is not the car. At the time we hated it and repainted it Plum Crazy. Now id rather have the Tawney.

KT340 I really like the silver frost.I know there were a bunch of earth tone colors.Seems like you do not see the different shades of copper.Greens I am sick of....LOL but I still love the G1 green.I saw a original paint 32,000 mile 71-72 Dart in the mid 90's that was charcoal or dark gun metal.There used to be a old lady in town who had a 70 Chrysler New Port that was panther pink!!! I would love to find that one again,when is the last time you saw a chysler Panther Pink.
 
How about this one on my formerly owned 69 notch, it is code A4 Silver mist metallic. It is almost like a metallic silver with a ting of green.
