1975 Ford Green Glow Metallic

Yup, blasphemous, isn't it? Still, it looks good with the Ivy Gold interior.



As for winter projects, I didn't get anything done. Commuting to school and taking care of the baby sucked up all my free time and money. Also, my father had hand surgery and we couldn't get the heat hooked up in the barn as a result. Sadly, I doubt I'll be able to drive the Camaro but once or twice this summer. Next summer, however, should be a different story as I'll have passed the bar and should have a job somewhere.

I have to take the long view or I'd be depressed all the time.

hope you make the M&G - would luv to see it in person

[David Conwill]

When is the Meet and Greet this year - and where? With any luck I'll be in Dayton, Ohio this summer. But probably without the Camaro.

If you hadn't of told me, I'd have guessed Verdoro Green...

Nice looking color.

Thanks. Is Verdoro Green an original '68 color? I was going for that look when I picked out the Green Glow Metallic, but my color resources only went back to 1973 or so and I didn't yet have the internet. I just picked what I thought looked late sixties and went with the Ivy Gold. I almost picked a gold color, but I'm glad I didn't since golds got really big in the street rod scene shortly thereafter.

A surprising number of people really hate the color of my car and tell me I should have painted it orange and dyed the interior black. That's just not me, though, especially since you rarely see gold interiors. Seems like nobody's neutral on a green car, though.

I can't wait to hear what comments I get with steelies and poverty caps.

Yep, it was...code QQ.

And it will be SMOKIN' hot with steelies and caps...

[JoeliusZ28]

I like the rarer colors like that. Has some historical value IMO.

[David Conwill]

Cool. I too like the rarer colors. If I'd had a black interior I probably would have gone with Corvette Bronze Metallic. That's a gorgeous color. There was another First Gen ragtop running around here in that color, but I don't recall seeing it at all last summer. It's been said before, but mine's an original code TT - Palomino Ivory.
