[mw fastback]

my 1968 fastback is about ready for paint and now the final answer about color has to be addressed. the car was originally lime gold and there are two trains of thought on this. always go back to original and it's your car , paint it whatever color you want ! it's down to lime gold or highland green. at the risk of sounding stupid , are there any opinions out there ?

I always liked that original metallic green, and it is still classy. I've never been a gold guy, and a green tint to it just looks cartoonish.

Always liked both those colors on the 68's myself.

I like the deep yellow ghost, it really looked good and drew attention! I saw it at a show last month. Mine is metalic purple, I have enjoyed that too.
good luck

Hello. I have always loved the Highland Green. That is a really pretty color. If I was going to paint a car the wrong color, Highland Green is the wrong color that I would paint it.

I'm with Veronica. I have a '67 Cougar and thought of the car in a multitude of colors. The dark green metallic is what I feel looks best (unfortunately an old friend from town here bought one that same color already- Phooey!). For a contrasting color, such as pinstripes I would suggest gold.

Isn't Highland Green the color of the Bullitt Mustang? If so, I vote for that one :bigthumbsup

Hi again. Yup, that's the color we are talking about.

Yeah, the Bullitt Mustang is one of the sexiest mustangs ever. DO IT!

Highland Green is a very nice color, but, it has all of the drawbacks of black. It shows flaws a lot more than lighter colors.
