unfortunatly its all in primer, sorry. maybe someone here has one. In later years its also refered to B3 code and ice blue metallic. I'll see if i have any parts that i can shoot a pic of . My deck lid underside i think is still blue.

This might help, if it is a re-paint it might be close to original, but if its a little off it could be another blue.

I like the color though

These are parts from my 68 road runner, the sail panel was repainted but the decklid is original paint UU1 paint code. Sorry if the pics are a little dark the decklid is in storage.

I was wondering the same, but it looks like it's just sitting there not fastened down. Probably just firing up the engine for the first time after installing a new coil.

Nice RR!! and welcome aboard paisano! Ciao.  :icon_smile_big:

The coil should be installed horizontally on the intake manifold so it looks more "stock/original". The way you have it, how can you put the air cleaner pan on?
You can barely see the coil on my 68 Charger R/T. I have a MSD Blaster 3 coil. I had to modified the coil bracket and other parts of the engine to make it look stock since heads and intake manifold are aluminum. Ciao.
