Saw this color on a freshly restored (to original) 1973 Charger SE and man, it was amazing! Was bronze, with a white top, and white interior, looked absolutely gorgeous! Anyone know the exact name of that color?

This color?  This is the orginal color of my car. 

I believe it is Bronze Metallic.

Heres the original color of my car.  This what you are looking for?  I think the name of this one is Dark Metallic Gold but I would have to look it up on the fender tag to be sure.

I copied that picture from the 3rd gen website.  That is the original color of my car as well, I wasn't sure on the name of the color.

PM me if u want to buy mine, ive put about 3600 in it, no counting what i paid for it.  i might let it go for 10K. :D
