This?

Or Chrysler Turbine Bronze would be interesting too but I’m not sure about interior color.
 

Think that "Medium Turquoise" would go nice on that Valiant Wagon, full one color.

Have a gallon and a half here of Acrylic Enamel in the Omini Paint Line by Pittsburg Paints. FROST GREEN about same exact color that can be mixed at your local PPG Auto Paint Store..

Chrysler G2 color code: Frost Green
that came on the 74 Darts

Think I like the White color better like in Post 122, with the Proper Stance and nice Wheels and Tires filling out the wheel wells.

Pop on that Chrome Roof Rack, Old School Luggage up there, some Fishing Poles hanging in the rear windows and you are good to go.

White always reminds me of "Fresh and Pure", goes with any color interior too, easy to touch up too if some *** hat dings your car.

Like the orange "76 Gas Station Ball" on the antenna too . . .
 
Always liked this "Silver", would go real nice on the Valiant Wagon, with the nice wheel tires package stated above.

A step up from the all white look . . .

Yeah, lots of choices on colors to use. Comes down to the owner's personal preference and what strikes a chord with them.

Here is another nice one, Factory Match to a 1967 Dart
Match Color is called Athena Blue Poly, brand code: 2772 if a person wants to get it mixed up at PPG.

Factory Matched to 1967 Dodge Dart if you want to keep it in the Mopar Family

Personally I think high impact 70-71 colors look awful on most early a-body cars...some cars can pull it off when done nice like a lime green pro-street or something to that matter. A guy in town here had a 64 Dart convertible painted plum crazy purple, with purple rallye wheels and a white top and interior....my MoPar OCD couldn’t stand to look at it lol

I like the colors offered by Chrysler these years...I think a light blue or silver would look great on a wagon, or maybe 2-tone them together!
 
This color is a little bold but I love it, it’s a 1966 color called citron gold, my dad’s car came factory with it and it really pops!

Wow !
I am liking the 3rd one down with the year correct Medium Turquoise on it.

But besides that I really like the chrome roof rack, the alumuinum rear side wings to keep the dust off the back window, and the nice wheel tire package.

That one has all the good stuff all wrapped into one. Good Stance !

Cool, Surfboard on top too . . can swap that out for the Vinage Luggage in Colorado for doing the Road Trips . . .

This is - was - an original 4-speed V8 Wagon with AC, sold by Orlando Motors years ago....
Very close to mine, with tan interior too.
Does anyone here on FABO know, what happened to this wagon?
 
Too bad the NON wagons had the low hanging wheel openings. I saw a 64 or 65 Barracuda with matching front and rear wheel openings and it looked SO much better!
 
I like the stance on this one. I usually try to raise them. When I started driving my first 68 dart, I cranked the torsion bars up 20 turns. The front was higher than the rear but it kinda looked gasser

You're right that turquoise is nice

Looks like pea green to me , don't like it -------jmo

I had a 57 chevy once that was really turquois colored , it would be pretty flashy on a wagon.
 
The stance says "I'm here to burn gas and kick ***”

That’s what I was going for, I have it cranked up as high as I could go while still being able to align it good. I do have a straight axle and some A-100 seats yet...I’ve always wanted a A-body gasser...

I like the Medium Turquoise. Here is a picture of my brother Tom this summer, and his first car, 1967 Barracuda.
