PICKLE Me ELMO or GREEN With ENVY

[DocMcNeedy]

Those are wires?
That is a nice looking car.

I think so...it reminded me of Old Red...But, I have so many Imperial photos on my computer I think it's going to start smoking....I may be wrong about the wire rims.

Hard to see from this angle. Looks like some kind of knock off in the center

Here is a 1972 GF7 E9F6 V1F triple-pickle New Yorker (not Brougham). The paint, which is said to be original, does travel with ambient light.

This thread is funny because PICKLE is what my Daughters best friend calls my C Body. So, it has always stuck.

Green was a very popular color for cars in the 1960's and 1970's. By about 1980 green faded quickly as a favorite or common paint color.

Here is another triple-pickle, this one a 1971 Imperial LeBaron that was for sale in North Carolina a couple of months ago but escaped my attention because the CL ad was sub-optimally listed. She seemed to be in great shape, especially inside -- yet despite its condition and its having only 49k miles, it was being advertised at the hard-to-beat price of $3.5k. The ad went down after I contacted the owner this weekend (edit: the car is gone unfortunately).

Nothing wrong with the lighter greens too....

CarDomain has a gallery of a triple-green 1973 Chrysler New Yorker in the same JF1 Mint Green exterior color. She is for sale (not mine). I am taking the liberty to post two photos below -- one of the perfect exterior, one of the fading interior. The CD gallery has many more.
