Interior and Exterior Emblems
I am close to finishing off my 66 Cutlass Convertible.
The interior will be here next week.
Does anyone out there know what the background color for the Olds emblems on the trunk, grill and door panels are.
Thanks for your help
Ron

You may be thinking of Garnet Red. A color GM used for years as a body color as well as with Oldsmobile emblems. In the early '60s emblems were accented with either Garnet Red or Black. Garnet Red can be found at any place handling Dupli-color spray and touch up paint.

i've always heard the color is called claret or claret red.
I still remember when the hood rocket on Dad's 67 was starting to look like it had been thru one winter too many. Don't laugh, he went to the drugstore and bought some claret fingernail polish. Damn stuff looked great and lasted nearly forever. Easy to touch up too.
