Color match?

Post by Tharrell »

1985
Whadda ya think?
It's chev engine orange.
Close enough?
I had ordered $200 worth of original oem colorrite paint but, it burned up in the fire.
The fire also burned the nomenclature plate so, I decided to just rattlecan it.

It's overcast, it looks more orange in person.
Same for the rad shroud.

The CR500 is an acquired taste. If you don't like it, acquire some taste...
