Liz Taylor charger

Still wonder what the paint code was?

[Ghoste]

999?

[41husk]

That special order so it was likely a one off?

[Ghoste]

I don't believe they ever offered a pearl pink in the regular lineup did they?  A show car so it makes sense in one but if it was done  by an outside contractor like sya, the Diamante, who knows what the original color was?  White maybe?  Only guessing.

The other link was posted already but it doesn't speculate as to a paint code.

Update!

I talked to my Dad today and he said the color was made after the color of Liz Taylor's eyes and was made just for her.  He meets with a bunch of Chrysler guys he worked with and is going to ask them if they have any additinal info.

[Ghoste]

Her eyes were blue right?

[Fred]

They say they were violet. Personally I think that is a lot  of BS.  I never saw it in any of her movies. And then there's always contact lenses to make that tale come true.

[Ghoste]

I don't much buy violet eyes either.  They always looked blue to me but what do I know about Liz right?

No disrespect to Liz, however, if the car was pink, another vistor from another planet could very imagine that her eyes were not unlike one of those albino rats/rabbits/gorillas/koalas with the pink/red tinged eyes
I quite like the koala though 

[Fred]

You forgot the albino wallaby, kookaburra and wombat.........

I got the pink part wrong. He told me about it a long time ago and i got the color mixed up. I think he said it was a pinkish purple. He told me a few days ago about it being the color of her eyes. He said the cars that were built for celeberties were given special attention and someone followed the car during the build. He is going to try and get more info on it. He meets with the old timers from the st. louis plant about once a month. I'll keep everyone posted.

So this wasn't necessarily a show car but could have been one ordered by her and specially prepared by Chrysler as a gift/press op for her?

[scat pack fever]

correct! The car was built for her. That's probablly why you can't find anything about it. I'm going to ask my Dad document everything he can remember about working at the plant back in the day. He is 73 and not getting any younger.

Ahh, so likely then , the Pink one above that we've been joking around with probably has nothing to do with the Liz Taylor Charger then , Ok 

[Ghoste]

Which would mean going back that if it were an non standard color it would have been coded 999, correct?
