What colour is this?
« on: April 25, 2023, 01:07:27 PM »
A friend had an old picture of a car his girlfriend's parents bought in 1969 & traded in 1972. I'm thinking this car is Asure Turquoise. Any thoughts? Thank you, Joe

Most likely rally green.  The exposure on the camera setting seems a little off.

Photo of the green car for comparison.

No way a hue can be determined by a screenshot. I do this all day for a living at my shop.

Thanks for looking. Wasn't trying to match it. Just trying to figure out what it was. I'll see them on Saturday & give them thoughts....Joe

I think its azure turquoise as it only came with a black stripe unless you had white vinyl top. (I believe)

Rally Green back in the day.
