Grady,

That is one that got away. It had a 6 banger in it. Mileage around 20K.

Guys I sure appreciate the help. The color in photo of the two Camaro's is what I am looking for.

Thanks

Since you like the color of my Garnet Red convertible above, I took a piece of the car (since the weather still sucks) to a paint supply shop the other day and they matched the color of my car to one of their charts as close as possible. The code they gave me is: Glasurit 8517M or BASF 225050. I'm not a paint guy, so don't ask me what that means.

I should point out that up-close my convertible looks much darker than my nephew's faded but original paint coupe... but from twenty feet (as in the photo above) the cars look very similar. Likewise, my convetible is a few shades darker than the 1969 dealer album paint chip, but even that chip could have faded over the years. I originally matched my convertible's paint from an original paint garnet red Z28 from paint under the trunk weatherstrip.

If you need a different code, let me know and I'll either give you the paint supply guy's name/number or call him to get what info you need.

Hope that helps!
