I am about to pick the color to paint my 1969 340 4 Speed Convertible Dart...
It is NOT factory original 8 cyl,4 speed.
If anybody has any nice Ideas send me pix..
or the paint numbers etc....
Original interior is white..
you could look at my progress at www.dartmanclassic.com

Thanks in advance for help

69 t5 copper poly -- great color looks tons better with the white interior

Please no plum crazy or sublime.
 
Any color goes w/ white int. Paint it something you like & you don't see much of. or paint it HENA
 
I'm startin to really like GG1 Dark Racing Green. Almost looks Black at night.
 
Could go with 68 JJ1 Gold !!

I filled up a new 1974 Cadillac painted "terra cota firemist" back in the days I worked at a Chevron service station just out of high school. Painted my 1965 Valiant bracket racer that color, looked good.

Pink? :)


No seriously..I love a good coat of silver or gold, or a pearl white, we just want to see the finished project! My honest advice...Go to a car show, and find a color of a car that you think stands, ask the guy what color it is.. out and do a variation of that!
 
I had a friend in high school that had a new 69 Swinger. B5 blue with white rear stripe and blue interior. I'm am quite partial to B5 on a 69 Dart, BUT, I also love the copper and especially the turquoise they had back then. I think if it was mine, I'd go with the turquoise...
 
THAT DARK COPPER/REDDISH IS AWESOME i forget the color code.

all in all i think DIBBONS wins here.. cant beat that red on a 69
 
I think its B3?? Ice blue? Pale metallic blue something something....love it with white trim.
