Help Me Decide on Exterior Color - Windward Blue Lemans
 
1 Attachment(s)
I never see any 69 Lemans in Windward Blue and thinking of doing mine in this color. Anyone out there with this color who can post a picture? Mine is originally Verdoro Green with Parchment Interior, white convertible top. Help me decide- below is a pic I found on line of GTO in Windward Blue.

Windward blue 69 Firebird, it's a 400 HO, Th400, AC car.

Windward Blue looks great, but I gotta admit that Verdoro Green with parchment interior and white top sounds pretty amazing too.

I love those deep blues that Pontiac had back then. I considered painting my car Aegena, but kept with the Green. Windward looks pretty. It reminds me of Atoll Blue in '70.

It’s a hard decision - not that I’m gonna sell the car but if that day comes will blue be more desirable?

I would say the factory color would be worth the most.

About even i’d guess. Original color is a plus but greens and other earthy colors are definitely liabilities when selling. I’d say the positive effect of a correct blue would roughly offset the negative of a color change from a non popular green.

For what it’s worth I love Verdoro Green but the question was about value not personal taste.

You can't really go wrong with any of those, Voodoo, Aegena, or Windward. All great colors

So I went with Windward Blue - very happy with my choice! It’s waiting on a final polish. Gonna look great with the Parchment interior and white top.
