Getting pretty close to the point of having to pick a color.
Problem is , the cars owner is undecided for WHICH color.
Right now it's either the cars OE color which was EE1 Dark Blue and / or QQ1 medium Blue.

This is NOT a #'s dead stock resto and we don't have a build sheet or fender tag so the owner is building it his way .

He's just undecided as to which color of the 2

So,,,,,,, I am looking for some nice overall pics of a done cars in the 2 color choices . And it a perfect wolrd the pics would be .......
1968 Charger RT, no vinyl top, prefer with white butt stripe and white int, 15" chrome magnums if it's possibile

The dark blue doesn't do it for me, so I'd choose the QQ1, but I also think that the KK1 light turquoise poly is a very nice color, as can be seen here......

That color is beautiful on 68's especially with the black rear stripe.

The car was originally EE1 , owner is liking the  the QQ1 , These are the only choices he is considering  and I want to do some spray out samples this weekend to show him. But would really like to offer some pics of a car in the 2 choices to see how it all works

He's already bought the interior kit in white so thats not going to change.

IMO, and I told him so. I think the car would look dynomite in dark blue with a white int / stripe with 15" chrome magnums . But, it's not my car and will do it his way whether its my choice or not .

This is where I am at,,,,, for the moment

QQ1 was a factory color that was almost on my car so thats where my vote is at!

My vote is EE-1 with a white stripe.

I LOVE the dark blue, as it was also a fairly uncommon color from what I understand.

I know you're not asking for us to pick one, but my favorite is QQ1. Hands down. But either way the owner is a winner.

EE1. Too much real estate to cover for QQ1 with no vinyl top.

I used to have a QQ1, albeit '70 B5 Charger.  There's a bunch out there.

If I had a choice it'd be the EE1 as you just don't see that many.

I know it's not a '68 but I really liked this rig.  It was on ebay here a while back.

Anyone good enough with Photoshop or something similar to change this picture to EE1 ?

I like the dark blue. A lot of people would love to have your paint code.

You want EE1. That way when my car (original QQ1) hits the streets it doesn't have a twin. ;)

Honestly, EE1 with white looks great. So does QQ1 but there are a LOT fewer EE1 cars.

I always liked QQ1 until I saw EE1.  No contest for me.  I'm looking through my pics but haven't found any so far.

EE1 is nice and not seen as often, but I liked a QQ1 with the pearl white interior. Took me a long time to find this combo.

Honestly you can't go wrong with either color. EE1 is not nearly as common, at least on the cars I see rolling around. Here is EE1 on a 68 Coronet.. This Coronet is BEAUTIFUL, but like I said. You can't go wrong...

Do a custom qq1 mixed with b colors, lol.  Looks hybrid based on night and day.

Here is a different color you might like, this is my 68.

Dan,
That is exactly what I was looking for . Now if I can just find some very similar quality pics of the car in EE1 would be perfect.

Owner is leaning towards the darker blue more and more.
I Am doing some spray out samples later today to show him both in person

Many thanks to all so far,,but keep em coming if you got them

Sent the owner a link to this thread,
that dark blue Coronet has him sold on the EE1



Time to move forward

I would say that is good choice, there will not be another car at a show that shade. I like the color, I have hundreds of pictures
of 68 chargers, and not one EE1, I can't believe it    :scratchchin:

Good Luck
