I have a 69 SS L34 Nova I'm restoring. The original drive train is long gone but I intend to install similar style originals. The original color is Fathom Green. How important is it to maintain this color or if I made it Garnet Red or one of the original 1969 blue colors. I'm just looking for opinions.
Thanks, Rick

L78 Steeve,
Thanks for the input, I really appreciate it. I had a Glacier Blue L-78 Nova from 1971 to 1974. I wish I still had it

Fathom green is a good color on a 69 Nova. Check out bbbenny's in members rides. If you need a mixing formula for the FG PM JustbadJoe on this site.

Rick, Every time I have changed the color on a car to what ever was the hot thing at the time, I regretted it later on. There is something about keeping a car the original color that stands the test of time.

Stick with the green. I am partial though.
