Just curious if you know what the paint code is ? Just wondering if that is "Pewter", which was the original color of my car.

I'm going to say his car is code 43, Gulf Green. Code 14 Pewter Silver is the same factory color as my 1972 Monte Carlo. (Very bland color IMO)

My car was this color from the factory....I painted it red in 1994 but am doing a frame off now and thinking of going back to this....mine is an SS clone. When I bought it it was primer all but the jams....while taking it apart this time I took the roof weatherstrip trim off and found nice paint, and since then its been growing in me. I never ever see this color. I found this thread searching for pics of it....anyone have any other pics if cars this color? Any with SS stuff? I have seen the one on Chevellestuff. Yes the OP car is definitely code 43 gulf green.
