It's really not fair putting that out there in front of us with no pictures.

[northerndave]

Very cool, would be even "more awesomer" in petty blue.

But the green is very nice too.

I mean no disrepect, but with such a rare combination, WHY did you paint it a different color?

 

[drmopar]

I bought the car the way you see it for a customer and he bought another car so we are selling it for him so he can fund a restoration. Obviously 999 would be a better color!

I hpoe your kidding??

You do know that 999 is not a color code for a specific color, right?

999 is the code for SPECIAL PAINT which means it could be ANY color you asked it to be painted. If it is a 999 code then any color other than the available 1970 B body color codes can be correct. In other words, there is code for sublime and the fact that it isn't code as such, it is incorrect as a
999.

I know you can figure out what I am saying even though this sounds like I ride the short bus.:bootyshake:

What color is the interior of this Petty Blue One-of-One? It sure looks like the color of the seats is mopar green in those pics.

Of course my vision is shot and I'm a few pints into the evening at this point. So I can't tell.:sixpack:

That's pretty much my dream car that I have never owned. Too bad it's numbers matching.

I have pictures of the car in original paint and it was Petty Blue. 999 was the code for Petty Blue birds in between this road runner also according the Wing Warriors registry, plus the paint is chipped in the engine bay in a couple spots and you can see Petty Blue. here is the tag and build sheets.

quote from drmopar:

"999 was the code for Petty Blue birds"

Yes and no.

999 would have been the paint code used to have that car painted Petty Blue because it was a NON STANDARD color, but it is not SPECIFICALLY the paint code for Petty Blue. The 999 paint code was used for ANY non standard color. Your car could have been ordered and painted Chevrolet Hugger Orange and the paint code would have been 999. When a dealer made a sales order for a car to be painted a non standard color it was coded under paint as 999 and in special instuctions to the factory there had to be a color paint formula that told them what actual color the car was to be painted.

The beauty of having a project car that is coded 999 is that it gives the owner the option to paint the car ANY color they want and no one car say they are wrong.

999 was used as a special paint code for Petty blue but the actual color used on Superbirds is also designated C37D on the tag. Your tag and BS show 999 for a special color but your tag and BS show the color was C250. I have no idea what color that was. It was a special order, non standard color car but I doubt it was Petty Blue. Without pictures of the original car, it is very hard to determine what color it was.

Frankly, to me, the C250 makes the car more interesting than Petty Blue as it's an unknown color.

Is this the only car with this combination (the dreaded 1 of 1)? It's impossible to know. Others could have been built as a special run for a dealer and not survived.

Regardless, you have a very desireable car with an interesting, and possibly, but unproven, unique paint color.

wow , cool car,, i'd love to see what the actual color was/is??

Very interesting discussion. One thing I think we can all agree on is 1970 was THE YEAR for THE FUNKIEST, COOLIST colors ever produced by MOPAR.

and the best funkiest body style , I think the 70 plymouth and the 70 coronets the the best body stylings ever

Here is another example of what I have been say regarding the 999 paint code on another web site with a simolar explaination by another member there.

Hi Danny,

the factory puts the correct colour code in place on the fender tag if it was available for the specific model. If it wasn't available it gets the 99 (or 999 in 1970&up) because it was a special order paint.

"Another example: FC7 is a 1970 colour, available to a,b,e-Bodies but not C-bodies. I have seen a still original paint Fury III Convertible in FC7. But the fender tag says "999". Because the colour "FC7" was a non-available colour on C-Bodies.

So a car which gets painted in the factory in a colour it is not supposed to have will receive a special order paint code. Even if it is a Mopar colour used on other models.

If you look up the VIN on the wing warrior registry, this car was built behind a Petty Blue superbird, and another Petty Blue Superbird was three cars behind this one. Also behind the back seat is the original paint which is Petty blue. I do not like how everyone is smacking this car as a "potential" Petty Blue car when in fact it was an original Petty Blue car. Original paint behind the seats does not lie.

We've been kind and supportive. We think you have a cool car. You'd be better off NOT having a Petty Blue color but some other color more rare than Petty Blue. Where's the problem? You have a 70 RR 440-6 four speed in a, possibly, unique color. Seems like tons of upside even if it isn't Petty Blue.

VIN order means nothing as the VIN and VON was an administrative assignment; not a sequential built. Cars with sequential VINs could have been painted days apart.

C37D is the accepted paint code for Petty Blue. Why does your car have a different paint code if it is Petty Blue?

Broadcast sheets and tags don't lie either.
