Post by: tom on February 15, 2010, 05:30:29 PM: If my understanding is correct a vinyl top color would be indicated by a letter B=Black, W=white, etc. A paint code of 60 50 would indicate a two tone paint with 65 (Olympic Gold) on the bottom, and 50 (Dover White) on top. Post photos of the car and tag.

Post by: cjm465 on February 15, 2010, 10:11:08 PM: The rivets would have been there because, I believe, they used the vinyl roof trim to break the two tone up. That had to be quite a distinctive looking car.

Post by: Mark on February 16, 2010, 01:26:10 AM: Wouldn't have had rally stripes (28 style) from the factory. You could not order those, they came automatically on Z28s and Pacecars, nothing else. An SS would have had black hockey stick stripes.

Post by: bcmiller on February 16, 2010, 02:27:07 AM: I just meant the exterior color and interior color combination.

They also came on the Z10 cars.

Post by: KurtS on February 16, 2010, 03:56:06 AM: Not uncommon for a gold car to have dark green interior. 5909 2-tone's were made in 69 (2.4%).
I've seen a few other cars with the same color combo as yours.

Post by: fastcheck on February 16, 2010, 02:37:13 PM: KurtS do you think the car came with rally strips?
Title: Re: Need help 9N625512 2 tone color car? 65 / 50
Post by: tom on February 16, 2010, 03:10:20 PM: If you mean the Z stripes, no. It was not a Z28, Z10, or Z11. Would have had the hockey stick stripes if it was an SS, and an X11 could have been a 350 SS.

Post by: KurtS on February 16, 2010, 04:05:06 PM: Not from the factory. Those stripes were added by someone later....

Post by: fastcheck on February 16, 2010, 04:33:45 PM: Thanks, I plan on painting it Olympic Gold with a Dover White top and go back with the Midnight Green Standard interior.
