Great color! I was vearing towards a shade of green on my project also. What is your base coat done with, silver?

base coat was silver. Updates, not much going on with it right now, to many other things going on and moneys tight. it will probably be end of year before i can make any real progress. I'll keep everyone posted though. this weekend i might try to get a picture of the die cast posted so you can see the satin black i was thinking about.

Wow I love this color also. Between Matts Amethyst Red (Purple/LOL) 69 and your Viper Snakeskin Green 69 I think your color selections are spot on. :thumbsup:

Color looks sharp, definitely catches attention. :thumbsup: Like some of the other posts, I like the blacked out tail panel. I also like the wheels as is. Nice.

Goin Green
 
I'm a member over on the Pro-Touring site and am doing my 69 in DuPont Hot Hues Midori Sour Green. Your color looks great. Hope mine comes out as nice. What code and brand was your paint. I saw a viper in that green and thought it was very similar to color, I did't know it was a stock color though, cool. I too am having a hard time on the stripe question. I do like the flat black tail panel. Also I had envisioned the full flat black hood and fender area too, like a new Dodge Challenger I see in a magazine a while back, I thought that was nice. The flat black Hockey and tail panel I'm thinkin now. My interior will be the stock dark green for now but I am working on coming up with a buckskin one which should complement these colors well. You beat me to finished full paint though. Nice car.

I love the color! I've got a 70 Nova that I am getting closer to painting and the green I have chosen is hopefully real close to this color b/c your car looks great. You have any idea's for the interior yet? I was going to redo my full interior with a peanut butter color.

Awesome...

This car kinda reminds me of this Firebird that was featured in Street Machine Magazine in Australia...

Munster, I was trying to beat you done after I saw yours posted! I saw yours when i was trying to decide what color of green to go with and knew we were going to be close. yours looks great!! I guess were in an un-official race to see who's will be on the road first!! J/K, i'm not going to be on the road anytime soon.

The paint is PPG on the Vipers, we test sprayed a sherwin williams and a PPG and liked the PPG better but friend with body shop uses another brand that he said i would love if i liked the PPG stuff. I just do not remember the brand right now. I'll see him this week and i'll ask.

thanks for all the comments.
