Hey, I'm finally getting around to repainting my '72 Cutlass convertible with a saddle interior. I'd like to stay within GM paint colors of that time frame, and I'm looking for something in the red family. Matador red is too bright with saddle IMHO, and while I know there were no factory suggestions for reds that pair with a saddle interior, I'm thinking something in the red or burgundy family can work. Can someone out there suggest a GM paint code in the red/burgundy family? I'm currently playing with Venetian Red but can't find a picture of one, so if anyone's got a pic of a Venetian Red Olds, that would be great too!

 

Flame Orange Poly? Code 65 for '72 Olds

Matador Red was paired with saddle in the factory recommended colors for '72 and paired with sandalwood in '71

How about a '72 Bu*ck color? There are a few more choices.

Bamboo exterior with saddle interior. By far the most superior colour offered in '72.

Paint it, ummmm ....what ever color you like!

 

Or you could skip the stress of deciding and just paint it bamboo

Seriously though, there's not enough daffodil yellow cars out there.
