74 Corvette Gray

The 1974 Corvette Gray was a one year color. Does anybody have a good photo of a car in this color?

Here is the only one I have seen.

Awesome Picture! I love it. Please post more if you are able.

Next. Are you in Sweden? I have been doing family history and had family (great grandmother) from Svinnersta, Orebro. I haven't found whether her husband was from there or not.

Steel Cities Gray has some green tint in it that you can see in certain lights. Amazing what they were able to do with paint colors back in the early 70's. I've found that Ontario Orange is a lot of things other than Orange.
