That is gorgeous John! 
I had one (Windsor) in 1967 that was badly rusted then. I pulled the 354 Poly and installed a 392 I had built. That car was a lot of fun for a 16 year old kid in High School. I even won my first street race with it against a 57 Chevy!  Boy were all the guys surprised! I also made my first passes on a drag strip in that car.
Love your car John!

Not sure, it was that color when I bought the car; it's some shade of metallic brown with golden highlights under some lights, and just muddy-color under others. I've attached a pic of how it looked when I first brought it home. Other than the wheels and tires, and some hand polishing of the paint, I've mostly left the outside alone and concentrated on the mechanics, which were a mess. If I live long enough and get some other projects out of the way, I'll replace/improve some of the prior rust repair and put a better paint job on it.

Here's mine, before I tore it apart.Currently under construction for a dual quad big block and 727 torqueflite swap...will hopefully be done soon!
I see where the design inspiration came from for the rear fenders on the 57 Chevy. Wow that it a slick looking car and probably my favourite of the Forward Look era
