Lime Gold or Blue?

Will have white roll bar, flares, bumpers. Tan interior.

(This is Cassade Johnson's rig with photoshop to make it all one color & white flares+grill insert)

The blue is a sharp color! I like it on the Bronco you have pictured.

I know. It looks alot like the new ford Grabber Blue. I can't pin-point the exact color, but it would be close.

Thanks to all who've voted!

If I didn't already have a Grabber Blue 70 Mustang I would have painted my EB that color. I love Grabber Blue on an EB.

Tough choice. I have a '69 that is med. aqua and have been contemplating a similar green to that lime gold for my '73 project. I will say the '69 looks great when she's all cleaned up.

Take a look at the new mustangs in Grabber Blue - that should seal the deal!

About 15-20 years ago, a teal/green came out, and it seemed like every chebby truck that needed a repaint was painted this color. I want something timeless, and Grabber/Azure Blue fits that profile, as does the lime-gold. So, I'm torn.

Originally I was told my color was Seafoam Green but its actually Light Jade--the original color it rolled off the assembly line. Ive never seen another Light Jade around, which its nice to have a unique color not seen that often.

I like the Lime Gold.

If you had something other than a tan interior I'd have voted blue. Just don't think blue/white and tan will go very well together.
