    What is the prettiest paint color on a Cuda?
    « on: May 31, 2007 - 11:52:42 AM »
    I have yet to paint my 1972 Cuda, but I was wondering what paint colors everyone likes the best on the Plymouth Barracuda/Cuda?  Could be any Mopar color or non-traditional color.  :working:

    Not to come off rude but, what does it really matter what WE think? :dunno: :)
    The question should be: What do YOU like my friend.

    Any colour tickle your fancy? Plum Crazy is popular and a nice shade as-is Limelight.
    Do you like "loud" paint, subtle paint or somewhere in between?

    I've been leaning toward Sassy Grass green, possibly Limelight. 

    I was just wondering what colors other Cuda owners have on their cars, or what they like the best?

    Wish there was a Mopar paint simulator where you could try different shades of color on your 'virtual' car!?! :clueless:

    I agree with NZ; you should go with what trips your trigger. I've always favored a stealth paint scheme for my Challenger (black and grey, pretty mcuh the way it came to me) but I've seen very few e-bodies that didn't look good.  I really like the high impact colors with the more radical looks of the 70s and 71s.

    The prettiest is probably pink, but I'll stay away from pretty (just had to pick on you)...

    Ok, favorite Cuda colors are probably:

    1. Black (but, black is such a common color on cars, I'd probably go with...)
    2. Dark Green
    3. Orange
    4. Light Green
    5. Purple

    As NZ said, what do you like? Something hi-impact, or a sleeper color? Mopar has some nice colors to play with, then again, you could get creative like someone did with mine. PPG paint, wineberry over violet.  :screwy:

    I really like Tor-Red with white accents!!   Very cool!   :grinyes:  But really I guess I just like the white accents with any color other than black.
