View Full Version : Your Favorite 69 Camaro Color?

I was just sitting here thinking about how I would set up a 69 Camaro if it were back in the day. Then I was thinking about colors. Was a pretty tough decision. Thought I would do a poll to find out what everyone else thought.

So if its 1969 and your ordering your new Camaro (whatever trim package, Z, SS, COPO, ZL1) what color do you choose?

I'd take a Frost Green/black stripe Z, black standard guts, endura bumper, black vinyl top, and no other options.

...Or maybe an L78, same trim combo, with painted steelies and soup bowl hubcaps.

Fathom Green with black stripes would be bad ass too...decisions, decisions....

This will be a fun poll, and I am quit sure it will be very different % wise compared to what was chosen back in the day. I see Black is getting up there, it was the least used colors.
Check out the color usage chart from the CRG below that shows the % used of each of the 18 choices http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif.

I would have to think for awhile on the color thing......but after seeing Dan's Burgandy W/red stripe Z28 @ VF I could live with that.

12-07-2008, 09:18 PM
Hmmm, I guess I'd go with LeMans Blue. Black stripes would be my choice as they give the color a different hue. Ed

I gotta side with our new Moderator. I'd probably go for a Frost Green bare-bones L-78/M-22. I like the understated, Dangerfield stealth approach. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Glacier Blue or White would be close seconds.

Hey Cumby...I talked with a friend this past weekend about a COPO Camaro that his friend bought new from Dale Chev. It was a Frost Green black interior bare-bones 4-speed car...just like you like it. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif
I'm going to have to find out whatever happened to that car...

Oh yeah...I voted Garnet Red, but needs to be accompanied by a white hockey stripe and white deluxe houndstooth interior.

12-08-2008, 01:46 AM
FATHOM GREEN! But I gotta 'ya, when it came time to sell, I really had a big problem. When it comes to Camaros, everybody wants the "hot" colors like red, orange, and yellow. In fact, I actually had people hang the phone up on me when the car was for sale and I answered "green" when asked what color the car was. Olympic gold and Champaign(sic) are my next favorites. Give me the earth tones!

markjohnson
12-08-2008, 01:50 AM
I'll also add that Ralley Green has became a favorite color as of lately (for me at least) and looks great with a White interior! It just screams "MUSCLECAR". On the same hand, that Mopar color Sassy Green or Lime Green just makes me ill to even look at. No offense to owners please.

12-08-2008, 02:19 AM
I like the oddball colors so I voted for Butternut Yellow. Rally Green or Olympic Gold would be my second choice.

I have no choice in my PaceCar's color of choice, and wouldnt have that car any other way.

However, as my coupe sits with it's original <font color="green"> RALLY GREEN </font> staring at me, I sometimes wonder if <font color="blue"> DUSK BLUE </font> or the DOVER WHITE wins me over http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hmmm.gif

Yes, I have seen a White stripe on a Black 69.

From CGR

Tuxedo Black coupes with Black interior and D90, DX1, or D96 stripe (not Z28) and without* vinyl top received a Red stripe. (* Note: An original paint black car with a black vinyl top has found and it has a red stripe on it, so GM documentation may be in error on this detail).

How about Daytona Yellow with matching houndstooth interior?

I'd like to say the car below is mine BUT IT IS NOT. It's my friend Patrick's car and I am just storing it for the winter for him while he is restoring another 1967 Camaro for himself.

by listing these...people can now view the current results...PRIOR TO VOTING!!!
...Do you think this will now sway the results ( because now some who has not voted...can vote for an underdog "color"...? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Good call - although there are 10 pages of opinions that could sway the vote if you look at it that way. Mods feel free to edit the ranking http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

I can't make a decision to save my life 'cause I would love any color in my stable but I did vote for Fathom Green. I think it has a lot of class.

Sorry for OT,

but please tell me how are where called the headlights?

Was there a special option for 396 SS only?

And does it really functional or is it more show &amp; shine?
I think the light power are not so good, or isnīt it?

They looks like pretty good, i think!

They are hideaway headlights... part of the RS option available on any 69 Camaro... vaccuum operated doors swing open to expose the headlights when the switch is pulled (or at least they are SUPPOSED to) the doors also have slits in them that lets some light shine through if the doors decide they don't want to open.
