I know what you are saying.  Only problem is that any color on a barracuda is high impact to me....

Not a cuda.  Low impact for sure.  Deep gold Metallic.  1972

It doesn't look very good as it sat in a field for 12 years.  It is original paint though.

                         You know.......the seven cudas and one barracuda, built on 4TH April 1973 at Hamtrack that went to Gran Canaria,and were never sold.

Thanks for the pictures, I am having issues trying to pick a color for my barracuda and I think I am leaning towards a metallic green color(light or dark?)
