Do you have a pic of this car you can post?

I seriously doubt a stripe delete would entail dashes in the paint code.

Personally, my head hurts. While I have not been a poster boy for eloquence and clarity, I am unsure what is so difficult to understand. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

My eyesight is not good enough to see the color code. Thanks for clearing it up. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif[/img]

If you look at the known Chevrolet information, the -- is known as a stripe delete paint code. But the -- is also a non-standard color which might be from another division of GM or even a custom color like the Carolina Blue. The -- paint code is not an obvious designation for "special paint". Please go to www.camaros.org and read up on it and you will understand what I'm referring to. Maybe on a Judge it meant a non-standard color as well. Nothing is obvious about it so why make a statement like that.

Jeff, while it is much appreciated and very interesting to hear that a stripe delete Camaro would have its paint code deleted from the data plate, I hope you understand I am not the first person to get something wrong, obvious or otherwise. Like Judgeragtop, I am here to learn.

HI, The camaro does not belong to me saw it @ some local shows. I did see the 2 dashes on plate. I'll try to get some pics after we get back into show weather. we now have 12 inches of snow on ground. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]

I'm not trying to pound it in the ground, I just like to see what were talking about. I never did get over that picture thing as a kid.

One picture is better than a thousand words, or something like that.

HI, I agree, I was lucky my car was never painted. Where ever I look- under carpet in tunk hinges etc is the yellow.I know w/the - - could could really paint it any color & be "ok", unless you know for sure the orig. color. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]
