Does anyone have a picture of a car with this color code? It was paint code “W” in 67. That was the original color of my car, and I have no clue what it would like painted all that one color.
Here is the full break down on my car:
Parchment Vinyl Roof
Closed Crankcase Emission System
Exhaust Emission Control
C-4 Select-Shift Merc-O-Matic
Electric Clock
Visibility Group
7.35X14-4 Ply Rated Tires
White Rayon Sidewall Tires
Console
Power Disc Brakes
Power Steering
Air Conditioner - Whisperaire
AM/8-Track Stereo Radio
Tinted Glass
Deluxe Seat Belts
Wire Wheel Covers
I came across this car, but am not sure if this is the exact color:
Seeing what, I think, is the factory color in sunlight instead of fluorescent helps a little. Found this pic, and it doesn’t look as much like a coral color.
“Al lives in Chicago and is the proud owner of a Dodge Dart (although the model shown on-screen is always a Plymouth Duster, it is referred to throughout the series as a Dodge Dart).”
This is according to Wikipedia, but there is a lot of debate over the actual year and model. What is clear is that it’s always referred to as the Dodge in the series.
According to my references, paint code W in 67 on a Mustang comes up with the name Clearwater Aqua. From what I can see, the codes represent the same colour with both Ford and Mercury- it’s seems that just the name changes- but I could be largely right, with exceptions always proving the rule, it seems!
I think you’re right Peter, same color different name.
It’s difficult to get a picture of a specific car color that is on an original car due to the age of the paint and the lighting that it is in. Some of the pictures in this post look like Turquoise.
