That's a very color combo, especially jade interior.

Some other Pros on this forum can probably give you exact stats.

It's SO '70s, I would restore it back to the original.
It'd look great!

If you'd ever consider selling, let me know.

Good luck on the resto!

I used to own a 71 GTO 455HO automatic with that exact same color combination. I thought it was pretty ugly. Had I kept the car, I would have definitely changed the color.

I have seen one 71 Formula 400 4-spd in that color/interior combo. I also parted out a 71 Formula clone (was an Esprit) that was green/green, but the exterior had been repainted white.

I don't think the limelight green cars are exactly rare, because the greens were very popular in the early 70s. I think many have been repainted other colors, while others may have not survived due to the color. Limelight green paint is really ugly when it's in poor shape.

I like the tropical lime!

Have a look-see at Tom Miller's awesome '71 GTO 400 4 speed he just restored.

Very, very nice, IMHO.

I don't mind that colour either... I would be inclined to keep it (I have a picture at home of a superbly restored early formula in that hue - it looks great!)
I too would like to know if certain colours are rare...

You certainly don't see a lot of Shadow Gold cars either
(Do ya Lloyd?)
It's also a beautiful color!

I'm still kickin' my self in the rear for missing one a few years ago.

My 70 bird had the same green and jade green int. I really like it. My business partner has a 70 bird too with the same color and int as mine.
