Allen's car has -- as the color code on the trim tag. I had a orange 1968 SS350 Nova about 25 years ago that had the original orange paint still on the car but I never bothered looking at the trim tag.

Welcome aboard Rick. We've all seen inaccuracies in magazine articles so it's no big deal to most of us. Although, many of the members here (me included ) get pretty picky on details. That's one of the blessings/curses of this hobby. But the overall plus side of this place is the people and the endless information and learning potential it offers.

Nice Nova!

The -- code for paint would have been for a special order color like the hugger orange and like I thought it wasn't avaliable on a nova in 69 unless ordered. That is some real neat stuff being uncovered on the car and thats the kind of things I like to see and hear about, like a history lesson of sorts. Really neat car Alan hope to see it when its done.

My '69 Nova SS spent most of it's early life in the Kent Island area - so I'm always trying to find folks that neck of the woods who might remember it. The K.Island owner met a tragic end in Stevensville several years after selling the car to a guy in Cambridge. Now it's in PA!

I had a co-worker that lived in stevensville and spent many summer days at cookouts and never heard anything and I go to a car show at the western auto put on by the kent island cruisers and never heard anything there either but I will ask now that I know and maybe I can find out some info if you don't mind marlin.
