    the green 4 door is probably the closest to a hunter green that you are looking for. the green is a factory dark metallic green (from the color sheet) and for accent i added seafaom green racing stripes. if you are interested i may be able to dig up other photos

    Yep I like this color. Looks like it suits the era. Grabber Green is nice if you wanted a lighter color. Not a fan of flashy, too shiny paint on the old cars.

    a few more. the last photo i put in to show primer color since this affects the final paint tone, plus my baby was so darn cute sitting on "her" car. she cried for weeks when it burned.
