Could any body please tell me what color this 1967 Mustang is. I realize it is a low quality picture, but I am hoping somebody can tell me. I have been trying to figure it out because I am considering pursuing purchase of it. Thank you for the help

no problem, Curt

wish we could compare all the greens though:

lime gold
dark moss green
timberline green
diamond green dusk rose (i would like to see how that color looks personally, sounds interesting)
maybe even anniversary gold could be it

Diamond Green and Dusk Rose are two different colors.

That car is definitely Lime Gold. Believe it or not, one of the most popular colors back "in the day"

I'm getting ready to paint a Lime Gold 67 Cougar XR7. It still has it's original paint.

I believe that Timberline Green is a High Country Special color like Columbine blue is.

I kind of like Lime Gold to, it has grown on me. But I am just wondering, in case I decide down the road that I would like to do this...how much does a GOOD paint job cost on a Mustang? I have nothing against Lime Gold, but I am a big fan of Vintage Burgundy.

LOl, like many of the cars mine was also born with a Lime Gold Poly color as well. Yech! Though I will admit that I have seen some cars it looks great on and becasue so many have abandoned it, it now can stick out at a show where as it used to be lost in a sea of lime. One reason why you think the car in question might look a tad different is because we do not know so many things about it. Is it original but faded paint? If it was repainted at some time, was the actual Ford color used? It was not uncommon in the 80's to simply repaint your car with the current closest available match to your original color and that was good enough.

That question is full of so many variables the "good" is no way to ask it
