To Mike and others with Green Turds.

I was very concerned about the term 'green turd' as most I've seen are primarily BROWN!

Then I found this and it clears it up for me, especially the BROWN one on my best 'BLUE suede shoe'... :brickwall:


Looks more like a COLOR-CHART for FORD's... :slap:

Lol......if you are worried about being "somewhat overstated"....then probably driving a Daytona is not for you. Not many cars shout "LOOK AT ME!" quite like a huge winged Daytona. Which to be honest is part of the reason they have little appeal to me. C500 or 440RT for me everytime.

You are probably RIGHT! alfalfa.

Over twenty five years ago I had the chance to buy a Daytona or a Superbird.
Driving Big dodges and Plymouths around London Town never worried me and in fact, gave me a thrill!
Now I am an early retiree the thought of driving a Wingcar in the UK, is quite Alien!

But as and when my Goose-sh*t green C500 is done I will drive her with GLEE!!! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Maybe even some of this? :drive: :drive: :drive: :drive: :drive:

Weather permitting unlike TODAY in not so sunny KENT! :eek2:

My Parents new 70 charger was EF8, My 70 r/t I bought in high school in 77 was EF8, the 70 r/t I bought in 08 was EF8, and when I repainted that car it was redone in a base/clear pearl resembling EF8. All these cars had green interiors.  Point is, although not my first choice of color in the 70s, it was a heritage thing for me. I spent 6 years, all my free time, and TONS of money nut and bolt resto/modding this car. It is irritating for people to off hand write it off because it is green. I mean, for crist sakes it isn't your car, you will never have to own or drive it, so who cares what color it is.
I would like to think REAL car guys would look at the extent and quality of work done and appreciate that.

Some guys like rarity and green cars are the most common, I think that's part of it that plays into the bigger picture.
f6 is pretty scarce (spring color) and its a great looking shade so lumpng that in with "green mopars" is gonna make all the guys with f8 cars pissed.... cause they get all the hate not you with your poor f6 car. LOL
There is "desirable" green and "less desirable" green, f6 and alot of the 1970 high impact greens are pretty desirable still.

I like my green Charger...

I like all green chargers!
Maybe us green car guys need our own sub-group like the aero-dudes.
We are 'special' too!

Green is my favorite color. My brother went to Michigan State University and for some reason I really like British Racing Green. However, colors I REALLY hate are: Puke Green, Crack-house Purple, Blue, and Yellow.
My '69 Dart, and my my '72 charger were both Dark Green Metallic (F-7).

I must admit that I may have been 'following' Kern Dog's posts a little inappropriately.
I also went back and put an ' between the g and s up there too. I hope that was the right thing to do.

we green car (F3, F4, F5, F8) owners hate F6 - "bright green metallic" because we wish our cars were "that GREEN!"  :2thumbs:
Is that like 'Greenis-envy'? :smilielol:

There are a lot of houses painted with various combos of those colors in parts of Vallejo.
I am NOT kidding. :eek2:

F6 is probably my favorite of all the Greens. Owning an F3 car since 1982, I've heard all the stupid comments about how ugly F3 is. To be honest, when it's faded and dull, it isn't pretty. But, in fresh paint it's a nice color. The guy that bought my car new, chose F3 because he liked the color.

The photo below is not a fresh F3 paint job, but a 30+ year old Maaco job.

I personally like green paint, but a triple green car goes up my butt like a hot poker. I've owned three '68s in Racing Green Metallic & my current one has a white interior with green dash & carpets. Not being a fan of green interior, the contrast was better than I expected it would be once I saw it in person.
