Other consideration is 1968 Tripoli Turquoise w/black nose stripe. I like both colors just afraid if i paint the car ABM, does it go w/that time period?
I think it would look fine, but a little out of place for a 1st gen. I would go with Marina Blue or LeMans Blue which are more period correct. Marina Blue is the closest to ABM, without the teal undertones. If you like Tripoli Turquoise, that's OK too, but I think you would tire of the color quicker than either of the blues.
