Default Re: 1969 Camaro Z/28 w/Special Order Paint

I would expect better coverage in the area under the door panels on a normal (not hand sprayed) RG or HO car because of the color difference between the main body color and the primer.

Not so much on a special paint car where the body color was close to the primer color.

Oh and I did not originally introduce the photos of the "purplish" color primer on the Hugger Orange car. Just mentioned them again because they seemed to be ignored at first and I felt they were pertinent.

Think about it...and what the preponderance of the evidence showed on the car itself.

It's a special paint car no doubt - so how much does that add value to the car? Hard to say. It may still be a one of one - but Flamingo Silver / Sunset Silver - instead of that other color that keeps getting brought up.

Flamingo Silver / Sunset Silver shows up darker or has more of a purplish tint in some paint chip books (I have more than one book) so I can see how there may have been a misunderstanding.

There is no way to go back and look at the car now to see.
