1970 RAIV Judge Ragtops

[442w30]

I seriously doubt a stripe delete would entail dashes in the paint code.

Personally, my head hurts. While I have not been a poster boy for eloquence and clarity, I am unsure what is so difficult to understand. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

IF YOU WOULD HAVE LOOKED AT THE PHS REAL CLOSELY ON THAT YELLOW GOAT ON EBAY,YOU WOULD NOTICE THE Y2 IN THE COLOR BOX [ TOP LEFT CORNER] THAT COLOR IS SIERRA YELLOW,WHICH IS A PALE YELLOW COMMONLY USED IN 70. GOLDENROD YELLOW HAS A W CODE [51] FIREBIRD ONLY COLOR! I CAN SCAN THAT INFO IF ANYBODY CARES. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

Hi, you seem to be quite aware of this paint saga. Would you agree my car has the - - because of the Daytona Yellow(non Judge paint) My build sheet shows an * for paint color.I thought it was interesting, the door jam had a written message of this"special" paint. I can't believe how much interest the Judges have got lately. I really look forward to some day getting my (1 of 12)70 RAIV/4spd judge convt done. It is #75 Cardinal Red &amp; has white top. I guess that is same as chev <font color="yellow"> </font> [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]y.

My eyesight is not good enough to see the color code. Thanks for clearing it up. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif[/img]

Don is correct. The sierra yellow looks like a tan. The Gto on ebay is not originally the yellow it wears now. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]

I think Sierra Yellow is the same as Gobi Beige. Don?

[GTO_DON]

If you look at the known Chevrolet information, the -- is known as a stripe delete paint code. But the -- is also a non-standard color which might be from another division of GM or even a custom color like the Carolina Blue. The -- paint code is not an obvious designation for "special paint". Please go to www.camaros.org and read up on it and you will understand what I'm referring to. Maybe on a Judge it meant a non-standard color as well. Nothing is obvious about it so why make a statement like that.
