Reply of the thread right there!, especially if the original owner or Brad (the restorer) or whoever else has a stake in the car seems to want 200k or better for this machine. For such a special car there should have been a lot of fanfare, ......i.e. Polaroid and Kodak Instamatic with FlashCube pics somewhere. Bows ribbons, champagne, hot dogs etc......LOL. But at the very least a sale contract with THAT color listed on it beside special paint. We, as hobbyists, want to believe in this Omega, but at 200k anyone would be a fool to pay that without it being in STONE that it came that color from the factory

If it were mine, with this cloud of doubt around it, I would have taken the 160k it bid to and ran to the bank </div></div>I had at least 6 new cars,corvettes and trucks painted non standard colors and it was just a way to be different,nothing special back then. the Z/28 had the grill painted flat black and the rear panel and spoiler face was also painted black with a textured vinyl top paint. my way of personalizing my car
