68 GTS Finally sees paint

[BB-Dave]

This is why people shouldn't overlook the stock colors. Looks fantastic.

You'd have to be an IDIOT not to put a MOPAR back to it's original COLOR!!!

Mine was Y9, so no thanks.

 

[FJRdoc]

I like the color combo a lot. Did it have the rear stripe from the factory?

I guess I am an IDIOT. My 74 Dart is nowhere near original. Neither is my 72. Both were ugly colors in my opinion and I was not restoring them. This car on the other hand was worth restoring and is one of my favorite greens. Looks great and I look forward to more pics and the build. Thanks for sharing it on here.

That's one opinion. I wouldn't judge someone so harshly because they don't want a car painted a color that they don't like. I on the other hand painted my car back to the original color of Y2 which I cant stand but for some reason I felt compelled.

Car looks great .... And if you want to paint it a deferent color why not . IT'S HIS CAR.

Not sure about the factory stripe......do I find that out on the fender tag?

 

[383Scampman]

Is it ef-3 green?

It would be on the build sheet for sure I do believe. (If you have it) I can't remember if that's on the fender tag or not

 

[cosgig]

Yea!!! Looks great, me likey!! Geof

 

[wesw]

[68VAHCODE]

No build sheet...fender tag at the shop...will; have to check

 

[rick4106]

looks good

 

[68VAHCODE]

Another "in progress" picture

 

[oldmopardude]

look for the code 317 for white. back is 310, red is 314. That is all my car book shows as available.
also ff1 would be light mist green, and GG1 is avocado. Yours looks to be the mist, at least in the pictures.

 

[68VAHCODE]

Thanks....it is FF1....where do u find these codes , on the build sheet?

 

[oldmopardude]

Look on the fender tag, it will also have the stripe choice, I don't see a code in the book for a delete, hough. 'll keep looking.

 

[1969VADart]

I have a question. Did you have the stripes on the rear put on before clear coat was sprayed or were the stripes put on after all paint work was done. I am thinking about putting some stripes on my car when I get it painted.
