It's funny how the color looks different under the parking lot lights

The car looks GREAT! Nice venue for the pictures, too.

After all the years the car looks the same and the dealership not so much.

 

[Imperialist67]

Are you selling?

IMO the 67 Newport Custom looks just as nice as a 300 or N.Y.
Dad had a four door that same color combination in 67.
Liked it so much our 68 Charger was the same colors.

Nice ride.

I love the newport custom...the trim...the grill...the tail lights....very sexy car....definitely prefer the fast top though.

Thanks for the question but no, not selling. I'm having too much fun with the car at this point!

Stands out among the new boring looking cars.

I mis-read this as "one last ride," and was jumping to conclusions. THANKS for sharing the fantastic photos. Turbine Bronze always sends, and the nighttime lighting only improves it here.

Love the car and the setting.

 

[WissaMan]

Very nice. Is that paint Turbine Bronze?

That is SO TRUE! I am amazed at how lame most of the colors being offered by the manufacturers are today. Everything seems to be black, white, gray, sliver, tan, or some slight variation. What a difference from 50 years ago! The High Impact colors Chrysler offered were certainly that, but even outside of those colors there was a very wide range of colors to choose from. Today you get your choice of 4 or 5. Woohoo!

That it is - I love the color and also love that it's original from the factory.

As stated in other posts, Ma Mopar knew how to offer great color choices! I was at a car show this weekend and there was a Superbird there in Limelight Green that was really gorgeous. Even better, it's still owned by it's original owner.

Not to mention design and styling which hasn't been much of a consideration for quite some time.

It's funny, but looking around I've thought the same thing lately. Most cars are painted very boring colors. I do see the occasional standout though, and very often it is a Mopar.

Absolutely love the color with black top. Tried to buy one that looked just like that, but was to late. Thats when i found my 300. Needs more pics!
