It's a great color, and pretty rare. It does look a little richer in person. I'd definitely put it back to original. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif |

Re: can anyone help with me with a picture
thanks for the replys supercar kid and copo anders.
a guy named mike gray from this board was selling his 68 island teal yenko back in 2000/2001.i was hoping that he would reply but nothing. i might have to take a old fender from my 68 camaro and have it painted island teal to see what it looks like. thanks once again guys and your time too. mark b |
Re: can anyone help with me with a picture
I may be wrong but......I think Mike Gray past away a few years back.

Re: can anyone help with me with a picture
im really sorry that he might have passed away a few years ago.
im really didnt mean to start a problem but i was looking at old posts and found his about selling his 68 camaro which he stated was island teal. i see that there are 2 68 camaro on ebay that where originally island teal. i try searching for the 2000 camaro national and the camaro superfest which mike gray stated that he won some awards for his car. i would really like to find a clear picture of a island teal 68 camaro (drivers or passengers side view). just to give me a ideal of what the color looks like. thanks for your time 68l30 mark b |
Re: can anyone help with me with a picture
Mike Gray died in '02. He was way too young. He was an active member of the Central Ohio Camaro Club, and was a judge for the 2000 & 2001 Camaro National shows that we helped to organize and run.
He was the local owner of Redi-strip, and is still missed by all that knew him. His Island Teal car was awesome. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif Pictures of that color just don't look the same on a computer screen. We had some old photos that were never scanned, I might have them in the club archives. Andy |
Re: can anyone help with me with a picture
sorry about mike gray.
i have an issue of the camaro enthusiast from sept. / oct. 1997 at has kory smiths 68 island teal yenko on the cover. then i see pictures of island teal online and they dont look the same. thanks for your time andy m mark b |
Re: can anyone help with me with a picture
Mark, part of that is my fault...the picture above is from the SCR1 page, and that was before I had a clue on scanning/compressing images, thus is looks like crap...the picture above doesn't do that color (or car) ANY justice...

Re: can anyone help with me with a picture
hello chevy454,
no problem and any picture helps me out. i live in chicago and see blue,black,white,red,and yellow 68 camaros all over the place. i just want to be different than the rest and think that island teal would look great out there among the other 68 camaros. im even thinking of putting the black vinyl top back on? thanks for your time and help mark b |

Does this help? I think it is the same color.
Not natural light but the color on the fender closer to the nose stripe is probably pretty good. Remember that monitor calibration makes a huge difference. Most people's monitors are a bit hot so colors will appear too bright. https://www.yenko.net/attachments/124793-SCR6---0821.jpg |
