Sometime around 2008, I bought a 70 Formula 400 project car. It was originally Castilian Bronze with deluxe sandlewood interior. The paint was dead when I got the car, and I didn't really care for the color, so I had intended to repaint the car Atoll blue. When I pulled the fenders off the car and saw the original color on the sides of the cowl, I really liked the color, so I decided to keep the car the original color. The car turned out pretty nice and I'm glad I kept it the original colors. Many of the 70's colors actually look really nice when done in base coat/clearcoat (including key lime green).
