[ QUOTE ]
By Rick H...There was no code #28 Fathom Blue in 1970. Mulsanne was not a term used in 1970 for the blue color either... [/ QUOTE ] I really do think that is code #26 Mulsanne Blue on that Camaro. That was the original point of this topic,not the car itself. There sure was a code #28 Fathom Blue in 1970,although it was not used on the 70 Camaro originally,so I'm sure that's what you meant. As for the color code #26 not being named "Mulsanne Blue" in 1970,I'd have to take issue with that,as I have always known that to be a term used to describe one of the 1970 Chevrolet production colors. And here's why.. ![]() ** Stands for Corvette & Camaro Only |

Looks like Mulsanne Blue was an option all right.

I can only remember, and I remember it vividly, seeing one 70 fathom blue camaro. This was in about 71 72. It was a straight bumper Z28 with crager mags. L60s on the back. Also had a tall spoiler which I couldn't understand at the time. So maybe it was a copo spoiler car too. It was stunning with the white stripes and cragers. Only one I can remember that way. What was the deal on the color? Special order on the camaro or a time line issue?

Did anybody address the issue about this Camaro NOT having the FACTORY INSTALLED (no option involved) Rear Bumper Guards and/or mounting holes in lower valance. I agree with Rick H in that the asking/selling price was TOO high given ALL the wrong and /or missing items.
Did WE also see the trim tag with either code 26 26 or a - - for special paint ????? I find it amusing if not entertaining that this past year or two has brought all this new found 1970 Camaro discussion at Yenko.net. In the "old" days Phil Borris's COPO was just about the only 2nd Gen mentioned here and maybe the LV's D.H. 70 car......

I think Mr70 has lived up to his name with 47 pieces of evidence supporting his color conclusion of this 70 Camaro!!!
