Bahama yellow EL5, maybe not the brightest or flashiest, but it sure screams muscle car of that period.

Lemon Twist on my 70 Barracuda, mine was a teen car and you just had to be there when I painted it and rolled the shop door open to reveal the perfect color of Yellow :cheers:

What's your favorite high impact color from the '69 to '71 model years?

Cool idea for a thread 451 Cuda!

I voted for Hemi Orange...

I also like the "2008 Model Year Go-Man-Go" on my 67 Fish and the "2009 Model Year Tor-Red" on my 71 Charger...

Merry Christmas to all!

I may be wrong, but if memory serves me, there really was no such thing to Chrysler as "Petty Blue". I think the real name was corporate blue, which was a standard color. It was nicknamed Petty Blue, because that was the color Richard Petty ran on his race cars. By the way, it is a beautiful color, and one of my favorites.

Thanks for confirming. Probably my 2 favorite colors on a Duster were that blue, and Rallye Red, also not a high impact color. My '73 Dart Sport is Top Banana Yellow, and if I ever get my Duster done, it will be Rallye Red. '73 was the last year for high impact colors, and yellow was the only one available

I don't know of any color that does not look good on a Duster or Demon......lol
My first Mopar was a 73 or 74 ...Dart sport, Yellow, Duel Snorkel scoop, black strip went over the roof and back towards the front, I was 18, ( now 50 ) I ran that poor car into the ground, I went through a 340 a 360 and sold it with a smoking very badly 318. I sure wish I had more since back then ...:banghead:..but MAN did I have fun with that car. :cheers:

Hemi orange by far!

 

[65dartcharger]

That's an awesome color!

Yes, Bahama Yellow!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Oldmanmopar]

I voted Bahama Yellow. Only because that is the true color of my V24 Duster. Its New Color is not listed

There was a Butterscotch A12 Super Bee that ran around my town in the late '70s/early '80s, and it kicked alot of butt. I still remember that color and how well it fit that body style perfectly.

I voted FC7 though...I've owned 2 '70 Charger R/T's that color and stupidly sold em to finance the next project. 3d one will be a keeper for life!

 

[Ma Snart]

I voted FC7 though...QUOTE

That would be my first second choice - Went with Hemi Orange but purple also kicks butt!

My friend's fish...
