Picking color

[smokenjoep01]

I am looking for help with paint decision. I want a bright red like the car on the top of the page. Anyone know what they call that color? Is that a 72 ? Thats basicly the color Im looking for. :banana:

I found this site when I was looking for the paint codes for my dad's Chevelle. It has the bright red in there. If you want something else I also know a guy who did his Camaro in Torch Red (C5 corvette colour). http://www.chevellestuff.com/1971/paint.htm

Chevelle above is a 71, most were painted Canberry Red. Looks like I got beat to your question.

Thats exactly what I was looking for. That cranberry is a strong consideration.

Everybody beat me to it. Glad they answered your questions.

I thought Cranberry Red was a 70 color but would look great on any year Chevelle.

Sounds like the Cranberry red is the common choice. Will be checking it out for sure. Thanks.

They had Cranberry red in '70 too. They held it over for a year. (it was very popular)
