a subtle 1960's affect on muscle cars

Mopar called the purple color "Plum Crazy" and I'm pretty sure you know the other cool Mopar names,
Ford called their green "Anti Establish-mint"
and their red "Counter-Revolutuionary Red"

Kevin commented about the names of colors that they passed on: Nine colors that were rejected,
"Catch Me Copper",
"Unforseeable Fuicha",
"Statutory Grape",
 "Gang Green",
"Well Red",
"Cost Of Living Rose",
 "Fisher Body Rust",
 "Hi Ho Silver",
"Frank Lloyd White".

    1. Thanks! I know the ones that Mopar used, I didn't want to get into the whole list. But the ones you mention then not using? That's pretty funny stuff! Thanks!
