Pontiac was pushing Signet Gold pretty hard in '67, and the Gold interior as well, which was available with every color paint on the outside of the car. On the west coast, growing up, it seemed that most '66 and '67 GTO's were gold. And the real Signet Gold is not the good looking bright yellow shiny paint you see on today's restored cars. It's a dull fawn color that fades into the background. My '67 convertible was Signet Gold/gold and has been Burgundy/Parchment since 1993. Real, single stage Signet Gold is not a sharp looking color, IMO. The non-correct glazed ham base/clear Tiger gold cars look great, but again, not like they did back in the '60's when the paint would go flat as a chalkboard in 3 or 4 years.
