"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh
I knew a guy back in high school who had a green one with white racing stripes. And I saw a beautiful yellow one one time. But purple like that almost seems more like a Chrysler color from the early 70's.
Yeah, Chrysler had a color called Plum Crazy purple that looks a lot like this car's color. I don't remember Olds having anything like this, but maybe they did.
I've still got my Hot Wheels 442 from when I was a kid. It's worth a few bucks now.
ReplyDeleteNice subtle color.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if that's the original factory color?
Nice wheels!

ReplyDeleteJonah, better hang on to that one.

ReplyDeleteMaybe the car's owned by somebody who always wanted a Plum Crazy Plymouth Barracuda.
ReplyDeleteNot a huge fan of that color, but I do like the 442 without the in-your-face logo and side stripes.
ReplyDeleteBut I figure anybody who owns a car like that may paint it however he likes.
