GOOD GOD yes!!! And it baffled me that ANY person would repaint a car in those colors yet...

I saw a few 70,80s Cadillacs , Mark iii, ivs , Eldorados etc in that green and or blue. A customer whom came into the Pharmacy where I worked had a 77 Eldorado Biarritz. White top and interior and he painted it that horrid green! He said triple white was too much of a good thing. Sad part aside from a small dent the body was clean n rust free and the factory white still had a nice shine!!! WHY? It went from that to the Incredible Hulk green with orange peal galore !!! After I threw up I cried! Lolol

A buddy with a '53 Ford had it painted white with a black top and it came out surprisingly good.

I think the "Blue" on the car is very vibrant and looks like the photos.
