RE: [Chevelle-List] monaco orange

[396guy]

True Monaco Orange was a 69-only color and paint code #72 is correct.  There was a 70 Chevelle at the Midwest Chevelle Regionals at Wichita in 2000 that was suppose to be a "special order" Monaco Orange (http://www.midwestchevelles.com/past_shows/mw2000/p0000235.jpg) but the color doesn't show up on the regular color options for that year. I think Corvette also used that color in 69.  Corvettes in the mid 70's also had a couple of shades of orange.  Might check some Corvette sites for info on those.   Orange is one of those perception colors; that is, red-orange or a yellow-orange.   Dale -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of malibuSS Sent: Friday, May 10, 2002 6:30 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Chevelle-List] monaco orange Hi Everyone....       I want to paint my 66 monaco orange....I was looking at the paint codes for this color and can only find #72 red-orange...Is this the same as Monaco Orange..????..It doesn't look orange enough to me....anyone know..???                                     Thanx...John
