What color for the '70 Coronet?

[SteveSS]

It's cream right now with a saddle-tan interior. I like the color but I think it could use a bit more yellow. I was thinking along the lines of the pale yellow used on 1965 Corvettes. We have a red '97 Camaro and a BumbleBee yellow '81 Camaro, a Hemi Orange '71 Charger, a silver '69 Charger a black Pontiac '73 Grand Am, and a multi-colored '70 Lemans drag car. A white '91 Ford Pickup. Purple is out because that's K-State's color and I'm KU. I"m running out of colors. With the Corvette color, I may not have to do jambs and the engine bay. Whadda think?

Oh Jeeze, I forgot the Sublime 1971 Challenger. I know Sublime is a '70 color but I liked it.


If I could find out what color this was I'd go for it. Kind of a Jalepenoish.

Nice KIWI! That rainbow look may be sending the wrong message these days.

Friend has a 70 Challenger in EF8 Green with a Saddle/tan interior...such a sharp looking colour combo!

All those curves on the hood would show of well with a nice glossy black.

T5 would look great

Black or purple...

Any green would look great

F8 Ivy Green... As T-Cows ^^ stated, an outstanding color combo with a saddle interior

I am biased as mine is red and the color looks great on these cars

But they also look great in B5, TX9 F8

I hate color changes but you’d be surprised how good a new base/clear coat paint job in the original color would make that car look.

Fought this for a few weeks on my son’s build. Black, plum, blue? Settled on QQ1 with a black hood. More than happy with it.

I second this. T5 is an awesome color

Blue panel spray out.

Woah! You guys have forgotten the OP has saddle tan interior. Green yes, black probably not. Red or blue, absolutely not.
