How many Frost Green (59) fans are out there?

Given the option of changing colors on a car you're NEVER going to sell,would you:

A) Change the color to one that suits you best (one you've always wanted)and the hell with the trim tag.

B) If so,what do you think is the BEST color for a '69 Z/28 ?

I realize everything is subjective but I'm just trying to gauge the current thoughts on a very odd,original color,IMHO.I realize Ford offers a retro-like "Legend Lime" on the new '05 'Stangs but it isn't pretty in person,trust me.Only VW offers a stranger similar green on their Bugs.

MY personal choice for #1 best color on a '69 Camaro...for what it's worth...is Hugger Orange followed by Daytona Yellow & LeMans Blue in that order...just my 2 cents,and we ALL know a '69 Camaro looks good in ANY color!

I think there is nothing better than a dusk blue '69..

(that's the August 2004 Feature car!)

I figured a pacific coaster might still be awake.

Nice,very nice!

I should change my title to:

"What is your FAVORITE color combination for a 1969 Camaro?"

so that no one would be offended.

Oh,by the way...

Love the license plate.

For a 69 Camaro...I like the Lemans Blue...but then I'm partial to blue anyways...right Sam?

Best color? Tuxedo Black, no question in my mind. Trying to find a Code 10 Z for sale right now. And yes, 69 Camaro's look good in any color.

#10 is very rare,isn't it?

Very rare indeed. A friend of mine is currently looking at two Code 10 Z's right now, so maybe he will be kind and let me have a shot at one of them.

I thought I read somewhere where Black was applied to less than 1% of all '69's but I could be wrong.

You are close, just under 2% of all 69's were painted Code 10.
Champaign is the rarest of them all at 0.5%. Code 63
