Default Re: 68 Camaro Fathom Blue / Blue standard pic request.

I'm a big fan of Fathom Blue. I always thought this color was only available in 1970 because its rarely seen on earlier years.

In most cases I tend to appreciate the discrete pedestrian Earth tones sprayed on our factory Muscle cars vs. bolder colors.

Sure I love any original Huggers or bright colored HiPo and Copo cars, but I also dig those dark greens, gold, and brown shades.

General motors had some of the nicest shades of non-impact earth-tone colors. They sold very well on muscle cars.

Not all our favorite HiPo GM cars were built in red, orange, or yellow. So there's something about that Olympic gold or Paladium silver that really pop on these cars. I also love Pontiacs in Vedoro Green. Speaking of green, I think there was also Fathom (dark) Green offered by General Motors.

Great thread! Thanks.
