How about some nitty-gritty info on this particular '67? My eyes bugged out when I heard about it, so some of the others here might get a kick out of it as well!

I know where I'd like to see it. 
Any chance we will see a "Premier Showing" at the next Vettefest?
Sorry Brian, but you know I have to ask!

You guys do one hell of a job getting all of the details just right. Now, I need to borrow your brain for a month or so, so I can "borrow" all of your secrets to finish my car.

You have to check out the original thread for this 67. He shows the car coming apart and it is a mean purple. Your car looks almost to red but that may be the way the light is?

September 07 issue of Super Chevy. L89 Royal Plum 68 SS 396 Convert. White interior and white top w/white header wrap. Awsome! If I had a scanner I would put it up on here.

I must be color blind! It does say Cordovan Maroon. I guess in my case it would be Jed's a maroooon! The front cover looks like Royal Plum to me. Long day, brain and eyes hurt.

Second that notion! If my Nova was that color originally, it would be Royal Plum. All I have to deal with is Gobi beige and gold cloth. Yuk! and double YUK!
