1969 Camaro Trunk paint

[SeattleCarGuy]

These examples you guys are sharing are great, and what the hobby is all about. I am working on a '69 Nova. Would the John Berlages trunk paint be appropriate for a Nova? Thanks

I can't comment on the Nova but Johns paint is very close to my Kansas built 70 Chevelle.
So I got some great pictures from two really nice unrestored Camaros at MCACN.
John Haislip's Silver Z very well preserved car,I used it to compare my sample. I got some interesting shots of the tail panel coverage also. The splatter looks aqua in some pictures because of lighting or flash but it actually more grey.George

These pictures are of Terry R's car, also very nice original car 69 SS/RS LeMans blue 396 loaded. These pictures show more details on where trunk paint was applied or not. Also notice the wire harness metal tab was folded up after the paint was applied, bare underneath. George

I got as close as as I could with what I have on hand and painted my trunk. It was very frustrating to take a picture of an original trunk and not have it match an actual sample. My flash changes the color appearance. Here is a couple pictures of the finished trunk. The background color I used is "RM Diamont TA 1106" its a flat interior paint. The splater I have to find out if I can get more of. It is really hard to work with and I could only spray it with a paint pot and external mix gun. I will report back on the splatter. George
