No doubt!! Love that plum crazy on the B-bodies!!!
 
Hello all,The colors all look good to me as long as the cars are detailed nice.I loved all the colors as long as a mopar is wearing them.Dave L
 
I like EL5 Butterscotch,not on the list,and the ll1 turquoise on some cars.
 
B5 my favorite maybe because I own a B5 RR:headbang:
 
I gotta go with F3 Frost Green for obvious reasons.

Ha, what about Sassy Grass Green? I just love that color on my AAR Cuda. Also FE5 Red is also a great color on e bodies.
 
B5 blue for sure. I know it's not proper but if I ever paint the belvie it's going b5.
 
I'm all high-impact until I saw the Frost Green above.
 
I voted for Lime Light, although I really also like Lemon Twist. One thing about those colors is that they must absolutely have black to contrast them. When my 73 Road Runner came out of the paint booth with the Lemon Twist, I thought that it looked horrible. However, when I added the big black stripe it suddenly stood out and looked great.

If I had to pick a solid color without any contrasting stripes, it would probably be B5 Blue...
 
My write-in vote is for Rallye Green (code 97 or 99). I have yet to see a Mopar or any other brand that didn't look great painted this color.
 
I'm gonna have to give a shout out to silver .. I prefer 69 A4 platinum but hey .. what ya gonna do?
 
My fave is Mauve Poly - I think you could get it in '67, not late enough?
 
I like the Dark Geen with the Black vinyl top for my 68 Charger . I don't know what it's called but the first 68 I fell in love with was wearin it .
Ultimately I have decided to go with Jet Black with my black int . white stripe istead of red .
 
Everyone is right about certain colors look good on certain cars, but my favorite Mopar color is Plum Crazy. I was reading an article about color names that Chrysler didn't use and from that list Catchme Copper would have been my favorite.

my 1st Charger R/T was GG-1 Racing Green Poly with a black vinyl roof black bucket seat console interior, I love that color, the 66-1 special order code Dark Green Poly too, was a really nice shade of green in 1968...

I'm with Tallhair on the 69 A4 silver- it looks great on Plymouths! I love any high impact color on 70-71s...

I remember a color called Fisher Body Rust being an idea that was rejected. Wouldn't that have been great???
