Re: ontario orange (2000droptop)

i think Ontario Orange was the most popular color in '72? funny, how rare it is now. it's a shame. i love the classic 70's colors: Ontario Orange, Elkhart Green, WBY... even Targa Blue seems uncommon.

I was actually thinking the '69 was Ontario Orange, but of course it was Monacco Orange(deeper orange color). And although the '73 did offer Orange it was also a much brighter color.

Re: ontario orange (bgrice)

I thought Monoco Orange was a solid orange (non-metalic) used in 69 - Similar to the Camaro Hugger Orange.
I like both of those colors BTW.
