I would suggest a metallic candy apple red. THAT would turn some heads.

I would love a '67 Camaro (my birth year).

I would definelty go w/a period correct color.
I love Nantucket Blue . . .cool, classy, always
looks good day/night, ez to keep clean.

Depends on your interior tho.

Um, so I officially change my vote. That color Ken posted is SSWEEEEEEEETT.

Hmmm. dunno, for some reason I'm thinking DG or maybe Blue Pearl with some white ice pin striping.

which I just realized the initials for Blue Pearl are BP. So yes, I picked the right color for my next Bongo.

Whose "eleanor"? I know Dan Rather but he's on 60 minutes not 60 seconds.

Maybe something like a "Blue Dawn" type of burst or something.....

Silver with a pair of wide blue stripes nose to tail.

I believe butterscotch (older yellow) was a popular, original color. My boss has a '67 RS that color.

Check out the Pearl Yellow that was used on the Acura NSX. It would be absolutely killer on that car with some black accents. I don't remember if it was Indy Yellow or Euro Yellow Pearl.

My advice. Paint it a nice purple or something.

Then sell it.

And buy a 67 fastback Mustang.

 

[tkarter]

I would go for trans green on that

[skabassist13]

An Eleanor color scheme would be sweet. I think that car could pull it off nicely. If not that Id say a Metallic Royal Blue.

Sorry about the NUT color. I was just trying to help. I do know the color of gold in 1969... I think it's called olympic. I happen to have a '69 Chevelle in that color.

Why in the hell do I want white? I hope ebmm is the most white!

Ohh please, that would look killer, even though I'm not a fan of the movie, cars are something to move my bass gear with.
