I tried to show before and after to give an idea of old dead faded paint in
comparison to fresh base/clear.

Good luck with your Bird!

B.T.W. as far as the rarity issue, earth-tone colors were very popular in the
late 60's and early 70's. There were probably more Tropical Lime cars built
than a person would guess, but then again, how many are left???? Damn few
I would say. Go to some car show's(National Pontiac shows) and I bet there
is a good chance that only one (if any) will be there.

I can't say that in 1971 if I had walked into a Pontiac showroom, sat down
with a car salesman and ordered a new GTO that I would have picked this
color, in fact I almost changed color during the restification myself, but when
I started asking myself when the last time was I had seen this color, and
didn't have an answer, I decided it had to be Tropical Lime.
And now with the car done, I don't think I would be happier or as happy with
it any other color. Just my opinion.
