Title: 1969 Penske Camaro Color
Post by: OldSlotGuy on September 17, 2017, 10:39:23 PM

I am getting ready to paint a replica of the Penske 1969 Camaro. What rattle can model paint is the closest match.
 Thanks
Rich

How about the grey interior color? Seems many of the Trans Am cars used a similar colored light grey for the interior, trunk, and engine compartment. Is there a standard color and paint code (not just in rattle cans) that they used?

I'm thinking it was the same or similar to Rustoleum 'battleship gray' .... but I wouldn't bet my life on it...  :)

The interior, underside, sub frame and firewall paint were the same as the Traco Gray used on the engines. As of the 1968 season the color used was a 1966 GM truck gray. The (current??) color codes ar as follows;

Traco Gray
FAC Code 522
PPG 32374
