I'm not sure if figures exist for paint color production. I have only seen that data for 1st-gen Camaros on the CRG site. I owned another '68 SS396 with special paint and I've seen the "--" codes on a few '70 Chevelles as well. Certainly it's uncommon to see the special paint code but I would venture a guess that 1-2% of these cars got special paint.

What are you looking to get for the car?
