Does anyone know of a source for Pontiac Limelight Green metallic paint?   MCW does Lime Green but couldn't find Limelight Green.  Refinishing an old Monogram '69 GTO I converted into a convertible like the one I drove many years ago.

MCW does carry it, but sometimes with their products, you have to do some cross referencing, because they use different names. (Paintref.com is a fantastic resource for cross referencing colors)

Most times, they advertise their colors in the Chevrolet names, so while they might not list them in every make's name, there's a good chance that they have it.

 

In your case Don, the color you're looking for is listed as #6914 Frost Green Metallic, which is the same code and color as 1969 Pontiac "Limelight Green". (Code 59)

 

Go to MCW's paint page, the GM section of course, and go to page 2.

It's the first color on the page.

It's even on sale at the moment! ;)  ($7.50)

Most excellent.   Thanks so much Steve.   I searched and gave up.  I have a bunch of MCW paints so this is good news.   Don

Just purchased a large order from MCW including this limelight green and a dk green interior paint.

I also bookmarked the paintref.com site.   I didn't know about this so it really came in handy.  ?

The Paintref site is an invaluable resource for me.

I use it a LOT! ?
