Default Re: Paint color , will wrong color hurt the value

Shor, the - - paint code means nothing more than special paint. If it is on an SS then it could mean the stripes were deleted and it was painted a factory available color on that car. Cars never came without paint from the General. This was a misconception many years ago from people who did not understand what it meant. Also this paint code could mean the car was painted with another Dupont color that was already available from any GM car line including Cadillac or Corvette. In my case it would be Carolina Blue (1964 Code H Skyline Blue from Pontiac, Wedgewood Blue from Buick, or Bermuda Blue from Olds) on my 69 SS396 Camaro with white hockey stick stripes and white vinyl top. So you could not really paint it any color you want without doing the proper research..............RatPack.................
