very nice 68 there.
to Lthldos
the factory didnt have silver in 68 for camaro but the code for 1969 cortez silver is 69

 

Thank You... Cortez Silver it will be. Need to finish tearing down. Possibly tonight.

 

well thats factory silver he could have a different silver on that 68. it could be a custom color out a chip book.

 

Close enough. Went down to the local paint shop and looked at the color. On a sample looks great. Shall see what it really looks like when the car is ready.

 

did u take your camaro to bare metal?

 

It will be bare in the next few days.

 

are you having it stripped or are you doing it yourself? i took my 68 to bare metal by hand sanding. had the cowl,hood and trunk blasted becasue the hood have over 15 layers of paint on it.

 

I went with a PPG Silver. Cant remember the code but i can try and look it up if you want. It's been 5 or 6 yrs ago when i painted it. I tried to match the color of Mark Stielow's "Mule" 69 Camaro back then which he has since repainted it yellow...

Here it is in 2009 Hot Rod Mag

 

Here is the "Mule" when it was silver.
