Default Re: plum crazy purple paint chevelle

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: black69</div><div class="ubbcode-body">don't be so sure they did not have plum crazy purple in 69. I just looked at a 69 GTS 383 that is one of 9 painted in hemi orange. that blew me away. I was sure hemi orange did not come out until the 70 model year. I was wrong (atleast on hemi orange).
</div></div>

A few points on this:

1. Plum Crazy indeed was a '70-71 color.

2. Production figures for 1969 colors are not available, so the &quot;1 of 9&quot; thing is BS.

3. Hemi Orange came out in 1969 and is quite common on A12 cars.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">
It is possible mother mopar was getting some early trials of 70 colors, on 69 models. </div></div>

Why would they need a trial?
