I speak franglais all the time.

The paint code for the gold is 980. The two tone paint job is a custom job, no factory code exists.

"The three 1969 t-top coupes were a gold color with a black insert and a red, white and blue badge above the Stingray script. These were cars fit for men who had just been to the moon two weeks earlier on November 15, 1969." Apollo 12...Pete Conrad, Dick Gordon and Al Bean.
