It's a 1970. Is it an original colour? Which is it? Astro Blue or Misty Turquoise or ?
How can i foind out what the car originally had?
John

I already decoded that VIN# for you John.
You can't know a car color by the VIN #

You can know it by the Cowl Tag (Locater under the hood on the drivers side of the firewall.)
I belive this color is the Medium Blue Met. (Color code 25)
But i can't be sure.

The car looked preety nice and solid.
If you are planing on buying it, and it is in a good price.. do so.

Look for a cowl tag on the car it is on the upper portion of the cowl on the left hand side. The color code will be to the left of the letters PNT. Code 34 is misty turq, 28 Fathom blue, 25 Astro blue. Also on this site their is a place you can find the paint codes for your year of car.

I would like to. But found out this am ... the dealer who is selling it tells me he doesn't have time to take extra pics or independently have the car inspected. Yet he wants to business on the Internet!? He says it's a 6000$ car (and I don't doubt it). He is about an 8 hour drive from here. I'm not wasting a day's ride to find out it's not what I wanted. ... Story of my life ...

JT,
since you're not going to go for it, would you mind posting who to contact about it. that's the color I've been looking for to redo my El Camino, and would like to get a definitive on the color.

Thanks

Too dark for Astro Blue.
Probably med. blue
Phantom blue hard to find.
