----I also worked for a used car guy on Cape Cod back in the early 70s that ordered several Corvettes in primer because he liked black and was, at least, told that he couldnt order a Corvette in black. He would take delivery and send them straight to a body shop for paint. The thing I noticed about those Corvettes was (probably predicably) that the body work was not well finished at all. Of course regular paint jobs on Corvettes back then were not much to brag about either.......Bill S </div></div>

Probably was 1972. Thats when the ban on black paint started. I have no idea what caused them to ban black as a color that year. Very strange.
