Is that black or a dark blue? It looks black but it could go either way.

Here's mine, nothing to see yet...I am waiting for the new driveshaft before I put the body on my newly redone frame.

Polished Mayfair Maize does look really good with black interior. Just so used to seeing it as a old flat dull yellow. Always forget how good it looks when fresh. First GTO I owned was a 68 with Mayfair and black interior.

Yeah, the Mayfair does tend to fade. For some reason, Chevy people seem to give the color more respect than Pontiac people. I see more Chevelles and Camaros in their version of the color (Butternut) than Pontiacs in Mayfair. Rarely seen on a '68/'69 Pontiac of any type. A little more common on the pre '68 cars.

Very nice. I need to repaint my frame again I think. I'll probably just sand it and re-topcoat it. I used a traditional paint brush to put the Chassis Saver on and there are brush strokes everywhere.

Thanks, bench seat car was originally Mayfair Maize. Almost painted that color again in May 2009.
Wish the parchment car was a IV car. Only a sticker on a hood. |

I really like the look of that 'orange' (carousel red?) without the Judge graphics. Special order paint code or did you just decide to paint it that color as a personal preference?

I also have an expresso brown GTO convertible. Funny thing is that back in the 80's I got my hands on one of those original color chip sheets from a body ship, I think with the specials there were 21 colors for Pontiac that year.
I noted back then with a pencil in order of preference my choices for color and the 19th through 2st (last) choice were as follows, limelight, Mayfair maize and Expresso, go figure that now I have those three colors in my garage and I've grown to like them;-) I still have that sheet somewhere..

Hey Rick, that looks nice.
I really like the passenger side sport mirror. I'm going to have my 69 painted soon and wanted to add the sport mirrors too. Any tips for the right look? Not sure if sport mirrors from Firebirds work? |

I love the patina on this car, I would drive this thing as-is (with the proper safety maintenance of course)

Patina? I guess that's one way to describe it.
