    Green E Bodies
    « on: October 23, 2012 - 08:54:19 PM »
    Green was big time back then.

    So I was curious if those of you here know if yours was once originally a Green car. 

    I remember Green Avacado Refrigerators and Green Shag carpet.  :eek4:

    Never had a green mopar but I did have a '74 Pontiac Bonneville that was close to F7 green.  Later it was painted a really cool Emerald Green metallic, like a toned down version of Snake Skin.  Love metallic paints!

    Was 2yrs old when parents bought the first of many Mopars. Brand new 69 Charger R/T F5 with green interior and black vinyl. The car that got me hooked on Mopars for life. I still earn living working on the brand new and very old every day.

    The poll is missing several options. All colors are listed on my page. Anyone have pics of colors I'm missing?

    Most colors look great when they are fresh.  I really like EF8.  One of the exceptions is KG8 in 1974.  It's very close to the color used on a lot of Intrepids and Dakotas in the mid 90's.  I don't think it looks good on anything.

    Only the green survive! lol. My '67 Coronet was that Sherwood green. My Challenger was (I'm told) b5 blue with a white int. (they didn't put the fender tag back on - so who knows?) It's now Plum Crazy with a black int. Sorry , no green here.
