I put this here because the car is for sale, but what I want to know is the color..Is this Astro Blue? Or just a repaint thats not a GM color. I like this shade of Blue whatever it is.

Looks like Astro Blue code 25. The Med Blue code 26 is a bit darker.

That looks too dark to be code #25 Astro blue.
I'd say it's code #26 Mulsane Blue..or possibly Code #28 Fathom Blue. |

But since it is coded 14 (Cortez Silver) [/ QUOTE ] There was no code #28 Fathom Blue in 1970. Mulsanne was not a term used in 1970 for the blue color either. It is however to dark for Astro Blue (25) and I would guess it to be code 26 Medium Blue. But since it is coded 14 (Cortez Silver) what does it matter? Too much money for an incorrect car. Just my opinion. Rick H. |

....but isn't it nice to see a correct coded trim tag for the car at least...now it's just a color change.

Sure it's a nice car but there is more to it then just a color change.
Look at some of the questions being asked. Some people don't have a clue. Blank pad with nothing on it is not unusual?? All it should have is 3 codes and some didn't get serial numbers?? Come on! Rick H. |

By Rick H...There was no code #28 Fathom Blue in 1970. Mulsanne was not a term used in 1970 for the blue color either... [/ QUOTE ] I really do think that is code #26 Mulsanne Blue on that Camaro. That was the original point of this topic,not the car itself. There sure was a code #28 Fathom Blue in 1970,although it was not used on the 70 Camaro originally,so I'm sure that's what you meant. As for the color code #26 not being named "Mulsanne Blue" in 1970,I'd have to take issue with that,as I have always known that to be a term used to describe one of the 1970 Chevrolet production colors. And here's why.. ![]() ** Stands for Corvette & Camaro Only |
