I have a 67 Camaro L78 with O-O paint code body LOS 34502. The color on the car where paint is still remaining is a dark green metallic. Through research there appears to be a group of 67 Camaros with this same color. On this site body LOS 34507 mention that he spoke to the original salesman and he said it was Glen Green GG (1965 corvette color)GM WA3366.
I have spoken and emailed the owner of body LOS 34500 and he said British Green ZZ (1968 Camaro color) and 983 (1968 corvette color) both GM WA3829. But all 3 cars are 67's so 983 is also used in 1967 corvette as Goodwood Green GM WA3626. All 3 have different GM codes. I have the formula for 1965 WA3366. My plan is the make a test sample of each GM code but the other 2 WA3829 and WA3626 does not come back with a formula. Anyone here have older info on these paint codes and formulas? TIA Tony

Hard to tell from the angle and lighting, but it looks to be more like Glen Green as opposed to Goodwood Green IMO

problem is todays colors dont match the old colors. the metallics are much bigger. at least you have a clean tulip panel with good paint. you should think about getting the paint store to take a pic of the panel with their paint camera to start with. you can get it right if someone at the store is willing to help you spend some time with it. the gm wa #s are formulas of todays colors and may not be the best way for you to go

I think I saw a '67 Canadian Chevy vehicle (can't recall which body style) that was painted this color and it was called Verde Green. Might have been a commercial truck color?

I did look at Verde green but it doesn't look like what's on the car.
Here are some pics from the owner in California. It also appears to be a stripe delete car unless the stripe is black. Hard to tale.

The lack of header panel and cross flag fender emblems, missing pinstripes and possibly no tail panel blackout (looks the same as the lower valance), suggests the car may have been repainted, thereby confusing color determination. Hard to tell in that photo, but the the tail panel could very well be black.
How does the color of the unibody "saddle bags" compare to Pontiac Verdoro Green- WA3771? That appears to be a color changer in different lighting. Congrats, great car none the less! And even more special (no pun intended) because of the paint. Interesting that a number of them were painted the same and so close together. |
