Plum Crazy Coronet

[DWR]

Painted tops are rare. I have a friend that has a 70 Bee, Go-Mango with a black painted top and it's a one of one.

I know of a Limelight white painted top 70 GTX. Never heard of another one like it.

Approx 93 GTXs had two-tone paint. As with most Mopar break-downs, it's for US-spec cars only.

I was referring to Limelight/White, not two-tone paint in general. Same guy with the GTX also had a Y3/X9 69 Road Runner. Both cars sold new in Topeka.

Kinda confused by your reply, but I figured since I had my paperwork out for the EK2/TX1 Bee, I could show approx. how many two-tone GTXs were built.

Of course - because EVERY car is 1 of 1. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Chrysler didn't keep records of how many were built in certain color combinations, but they did keep track of how many were ordered with two-tone paint:

<span style="font-weight: bold">Super Bee</span>
Coupe: 2.3% of 3,630 = approx 83
Hardtop: 2.0% of 10,507 = approx 210

Those are for US-spec vehicles and don't include Canadian or Export vehicles.

I don't have Coronet 500 numbers, but I suspect they'd have a bigger percentage.
