Greetings from Arizona

Welcome to FBBO from Ontario, Canada, the land of the 3 week summer. That is a beautiful GTX. That dark green looks good on it. Chrysler must have bought green paint by the tanker car in 1969-1970!

Very nice looking, I get bottled Corona from time-to-time.
Hit a patch of 105F on I-10 coming home from Tucson the other day

Welcome Aboard from Scottsdale Az. Good looking car you have. My 1st '70 charger was f8, loved that deep dark green. Considered painting my current charger that color, but Wife and sons loved the ff4 green so I had it redone to the original color 6 years ago. At that time nobody was producing green cars and a couple of years later Challenger came out with a very close tint of green. Several car companies now offer a green choice and I take full credit for the rebirth of Green Machines.

Over 50 years later and with a full head of white hair, things have come full circle and I find myself with a same color 69 GTX/440/727/4.11.

Hey fellow old guy Arizonan,

No sooner did I post a near identical story in my thread "Retro Now and Then" did I see yours.

Welcome to the forum!!

(By the way, I'm up here in Prescott.)

Welcome!! Good looking 69 X... Nicely optioned, no fluff, just the stuff ya need for speed..

For many years green in & out was called the kiss of death... Yet somehow I always thought it looks great... Well, it looks great until the paint dies... Thankfully newer BC/CC paints really took care of that... Looks just like I remember F8 looking back then they were new...
