1969 Camaro Z/28 w/Special Order Paint

I have a hard time believing that the original owner made up a long story about how his wife wanted purple/EO and they specifically special ordered it and got it but didn't like it. What does he have to gain from all this, beside a little notoriety?

Just wondering, is EO a multiple stage paint process, like a base silver than a purple over? No idea how that color was painted, but wondered.
