Look forward to seeing pictures at the show, and during the restoration process.

Did the paint scan out as a GM color? It looks a darker blue than the 69 SS pictured above.

Made it down to the Camaro Nationals in Frederick MD on Saturday. Here are some photos of the Carolina blue Z28. Awesome job Frank and Matt!

Pretty amazing car. What is the story with the stripe delete and special color stripe deal?

Thanks Rob for posting some pictures.

It was also a pleasure to have the original owner attend and see the car in its completed version for the first time since the mid 1970s

GM had a color in 1970 that resembles that Blue and might be the same formula. Olds called it “Azure Blue”. My reasoning behind saying it could possibly be the same mix, is that the color on 1970 Oldsmobile Rallye 350 models is actually the same as 1969 Daytona Yellow on Camaro/Chevelle models. Maybe it’s the camera or lighting, but the restored car and the sample photo of a car with a vinyl top appear different. The 1970 color I’m referring to resembles the sample photo, and to my eyes looks much lighter/softer than the hue of the restored car (in the photos).

I owned a 70 Olds Rallye 350, one of the fastest cars from a dead stop I ever owned, factory stock.
I do not believe the Daytona Yellow Chev colour is even remotely close. I had a factory L88 Daytona yellow hood on my LT1 and the colours are not close at all...
