So when you saw something new like this it had a wow factor that we no longer see in the color. A lot of colors were available in dyes at the time and not available in paint and visa – reversa, the technology wasn't there yet. I think it was a kind of yellow green color. In the 60's there was a high performance version of a Barracuda called a " Cuda" this was the only model in the car line available in a new color called Saffron yellow, it was all the rage! Maybe impressive enough to right a song about. Tommy James and the Shondells wrote "Crimson and Clover" because he liked the way the two words sounded together.
