Hey! My original car color as well!

A good looking color, now that I see it when it is not faded and chipped!

David just sold a silver car as well.

i will miss the car dave but it does not make sence having 3 cars with hardly enough room for them all and my bikes.

interesting about the paint as i can see traces of purple in some places and other places i see red paint.
there are other codes on the buildsheet is there any website that would have these decodes.

thanks everyone for the help so far

My old Challenger pages still exist. Although no longer owned by me.

paint style :01 [/quote]

V01 - Monotone paint.

(V02 would be two-tone paint with the roof & body seperate colors.)
