I'll take a guess, blue, red, black, yellow, white. Any others? I say paint it whatever color you want due to the fact that you will never match the paint perfectly to the 1985 color codes. Although, there are places like paintworld.com I believe that make car paint in the spray can if you give them a color code. Not too sure if they can match one that far back though. Post it up when your done? Also, where did you get it?

Go through the readers rides for pics. Fastest way IMO. Or search online for a camro history site with all of that info.

Yeah the reader's rides are down. Sorry about that. The silver is real nice! Not too sure how you would get it to look good with the silver decals though. Maybe "ghost" decals if anyone asks?

ok now that would easily turn up a few hundred returns if you simply did a search, and it would be a lot faster than waiting for someone to do the work for you
