I sold one back in the late 90'S to a local family in the Chicago area. They owned it a while, then I saw it for sale at another muscle car dealership. Lost track of it. Had -- paint code. Can't remember how the buildsheet was overridden, but Monaco Orange was on the docs. Owner history also verified original color. As I remember, the car had a folder 4" thick with documents, receipts, resto info, etc. At that time, we had heard of a possible automatic car of the same color, so we advertised it, at the time, as the only known 4 speed. I'm sure more have been discovered in the last 10 years. Here's a link to the old ad:

That's an old NCOA decal in the quarter window! It was born no stripes, no cowl hood. Someone before us put the pins on the hood.

I sold one two years ago. On the build sheet it has 80615 1001PA bypass code 6 and written by hand it reads Solid 926-99539 Red A.L-White D88 Stripes. In box 44 of the build sheet it has special hand written with no codes. It also has the-- on the trim tag and was built at the Baltimore plant Jan 70.

This is the same one from Canada. They list it as Vitamin C orange (writer must be a Mopar fan). It is up for sale in 2 weeks. http://www.rmauctions.com/FeatureCar...amp;CarID=r007

It might just be the pictures, but the Canada car doesn't look
Monaco Orange. It looks lighter. |

Ah yes, the rare paint delete option - I remember when they used to back them off the car carriers in raw steel. Those were the days
