That reminds me of my friend's '71 he had back in the '80's. He literally bought it from his grand mother and it was the same color. He took the factory 307 out and put a WICKED built 427 in it, but didn't change anything else. He won a LOT of money with that car. :D

You have a really nice car there! Thanks for sharing the pictures.

Looks like a friends wife car she has had since high school. She has been looking for some green interior parts for it, since 72 green is a one year only. Very very nice looking car.

Thanks, I had no idea 72 green was a one year only color and that's pretty cool

That is really cool.

Just curious if you know what the paint code is ? Just wondering if that is "Pewter", which was the original color of my car.

I'm going to say his car is code 43, Gulf Green. Code 14 Pewter Silver is the same factory color as my 1972 Monte Carlo. (Very bland color IMO)

[Ms Grumpy]

Well, ain't I glad I didn't repaint it Pewter. lol Not to say that it is not a nice color.

My car was this color from the factory....I painted it red in 1994 but am doing a frame off now and thinking of going back to this....mine is an SS clone. When I bought it it was primer all but the jams....while taking it apart this time I took the roof weatherstrip trim off and found nice paint, and since then its been growing in me. I never ever see this color. I found this thread searching for pics of it....anyone have any other pics if cars this color? Any with SS stuff? I have seen the one on Chevellestuff. Yes the OP car is definitely code 43 gulf green.

I love BING, here's a few gulf green SS cars...

Wow it isn't as bad as I always thought.i also don't think a computer monitor does it justice.

[72greenbean]

When I first bought the car I didn't care for the color but now I really do like it. I like that there isn't many left and when polished and waxed it really does.look good

[flash]

There is really nothing about that car to me that looks like a granny mobile ,I really like the color too.
