1969 Berger Camaro Colors?

[bkhpah]

The order of 50 Berger Camaros seems to be from two different months. I was curious as to color selection on the Berger cars. Yenko only used six. Does anyone know the colors they ordered them in? I have seen LeMans Blue, Cortez Silver, Dover White, Daytona Yellow, and Olympic Gold. Are there others?
Just curious..

Brian, I know that they also offered red. The yellow and silver cars were ordered for the owners of berger. The yellow one was painted inhouse at their bodyshop. The silver one I was told has an upgrade to 425hp! I tried to order a huggar orange car with black striping to no avail. My only option was to pay an additional 6000 dollars for the color I wanted. Also I understand that they were recently trying to locate any 2000 ss camaros to convert to meet their expected 50 sales.

Brian, I have seen an originally Hugger Orange car that is now black.

Sounds like they were 31 (not 21) years apart.

I think you guys are about 31 years apart? 1969 Berger COPO's vs. 2000 Berger Camaro.
(thanks Kurt S)

Yes, I was talking 1969 colors. I heard that the 2000 Bergers were only in blue, red or white for resale. Any truth to that? I saw a black one once that I thought was LeMans Blue. It might be the same car. It's hard to get facts straight after six month's let alone 30+ years. That's what makes this interesting.

I had a chance to look at my files: There was also a 69 Berger COPO in Fathom Green.

Officially the 2000 colors were: Bright Rally Red, Onyx Black, Navy Blue Metallic, and Artic White.

All the 2000 interiors were Ebony leather.

2000 SS color breakdown:
Bright Rally Red/T/Top-7
Bright Rally Red/Conv-2
Onyx Black/T-Top-8
Onyx Black/Conv-2
Navy Blue Metallic/T-Top-4
Navy Blue Metallic/Conv-0
Artic White/T-Top-3
Artic White/Conv-1

Thanks Mis B for the info. The Gold Berger RS Camaro I saw was some time ago. I remember the color to be a darker gold than Olympic Gold would be. I did not look at the tag. The Black one I saw was LeMans Blue, I was told that by the owner at the time. I have never seen a Berger in some of the other colors that you have mentioned. I would like to see some in those colors. Also, were all the Bergers ordered with the VE3 Endura front bumper? Every one I have seen to date has it.
Thanks for the insite B

All the 69 Berger COPOs should have the following:
Endura Bumper
D80 Spoilers
X11 Trim
Hockey Stick Stripe (except RS which had wheel opening pinstripe)
9737 Equipment
50% +/- had Vinyl Tops (all Black)
