The car was sent to GM Product Stock, not a dealership , It was then drag raced before being brought back to its current state. Had the paper been aquired earlier it would have been restored to correct colors.

No slight was intended in my post. Very reasonable reply to the colour change. That colour was very popular that year and if the owner was guessing or liked that colour he did it right.


Wish I had the $$ to put it my garage beside my 66 Biscayne.
