I guess I'm just boring or maybe it's because my 67 is this color. Cameo Ivory with black top and interior. If I could hand pick one today, probably Meridian Turquoise/White/White, Flambeau Burgandy/White/White, Mayfair Maize/Black/Black

My fav's;
Tyrol blue w/ brt blu interior & Verdero grn w/blk intr.
Like the Verdero cause only Pontiac's used it...except maybe mopar?

I'd stick with the original color/interior combo myself. The Aleutian Blue mention above would be tempting though. The one Aleutian Blue 68 coupe with red line tires I have seen was a great looking car.

That's funny, my car was blue with blue interior, and I went to green/blk int.

The first picture is my car in 1980 in Alpine Blue and Cameo Ivory painted top from the factory. Back then I was young and wanted it red. My tastes changed throughout my years and was close to painting it back to Alpine blue with cameo Ivory top as its sort of rare with two tone paint and was sick of red. Well I really like and get so many compliments on the blue on my convertible that I figured Id try cameo Ivory with the Intense Blue (Dodge truck blue in 1999) I cant tell you how it pops but I cant drive for 5 minutes without someone commenting on the color/car. The wheels will be going back to stock also. My first body and paint job is the Blue and white. You can check out the history of my car from 1980 to present and as far as Im concerned, it looks better than it ever has. 532,000 miles later. The link has 4 pages. With all the choices of paint out now, I really cant see painting it a olor you dont like.

Ohhhhh man, are those side pipe I'm seeing??? That sure brings back memories when at one time you just were not very col if any car you had didn't have side pipes. I ran Mopars for years as a kid with them. Later traded mt last one for a 71 Chebby SS drop top factory 454 4 speed, in cold color. And yup I installed the side pipes on it too. What I should have done was forget the pipes and park the car for forty years. My only really rear car I've ever owned. By the way, I've seen the 99 Dodge blue on a fwe cars but yours looks beter than most. Great choice. My 68 drop top 400 Bird is blue on blue with a blue top. Boring !!

My cousin still has scars on his legs from my side pipes on my 68 circa 1970.
I was so glad to finally get rid of them and go back to a full exhaust.

Not to highjack the thread but these pipes are old Thrush Pipes except for the turnouts at the back . I lost one accellerating onto the freeway and by the time I got back to pck it up, it was flattened. I drove home before noticing anything and when I got out I noticed it missing so on my way back to work I found what I thought was the turn out. It was actually a Semi exhaust tip from the stack. So when I found mine squished, I came up with an idea. I called Peterbuilt and sure enough they had the diameter i needed so I replaced both sides so I guess they are now Thrush Peterbuilts. Now thats a tough exhaust!! Anyway, the color really does pop and thats why so many 1 st places at shows. Dodge firebird. LOL. This picture is without the HO stripe. I really think the added stripe set it off.

[sixt8bird]

One more, just to make sure you see the color popping. LOL!

My 1st car(68FB) was Verdero grn w/blk interior.
My 2nd car(67FB) was/is Tyrol blu w/brt blu int.

The 68FB a bought last yr is blk on blk, but was originally Verdero grn.
Thinking of changing back to the V-grn.
