Lightbulb 1960's Colours On New Model Goats

Howdy Ya'll.

I have seen a few examples of some great 1960's Pontiac colours.

I think a '04-'06 GTO would look great painted "Tiger Gold"(a special order colour) , 1969 Firebird code 57 Midnight Green or Limelight Green.

What do Ya'll think?

Joeyelbows I believe that green is Monaro Hot House Green which is a great colour in and of itself.

Thanks for the pics.

The blue one I love, but these GTO's (as I have learned) really should not try to imitate the old ones. Everyone thinks that "retro" should be how they look, but nothing retro flows with the body lines of these cars.

The way I see it, these GTO's will have a name for themselves one day, so trying to imitate the old ones would be an incorrect description of them.

I believe they should always be in two seperate categories of "new" and "old". I don't know when the retro fad is gonna go away, but our car's will be much more appreciated when that time comes.

I agree Zdenek, I didn't really want to do anything Retro I just like the older Pontiac colours.

As Joeyelbows said too bad we don't have the Holden colours.

I am now leaning towards Buick Seamist green,Dodge Light Kiwi Pearl, or Holden Hot House green.
