Hi all. Newbie here to the forum. I bought my wife a 1990 IROC Convertible with only 42,000 original miles and I have some questions. I want to keep the car as original as I possibly can but there are some things that I want to do to it to "clean it up". I have no idea whether or not this car will ever be in a "collector" category but my plan is to keep it as accurate as possible without stupid money being spent. Overall the car is in very good condition but i want to clean and repaint the rear axle, a-arms, etc.

Does anyone know what paint color, code, type etc that would be the closest match to original?

To partially answer your question - a-arms were barely painted and the rear end wasn't

 

Much appreciated. Thanks. Very interesting reading.

 

IMO, and many other Members on this site, your wife's car is already in the "collector" category. Good luck with it.
