Hello ,
I bought a old ragged 85 coupe which is black, auto, Z 51 to drive every day(don't like driving my 6spd every day). Just want to know the paint code for yellow, the car was yellow at one time, but the paint code said it was black. I cant find a 85 paint code for yellow .


Thanks,
Ron

To my knowldege, only 3 vettes or so were painted yellow for 85 as a test and GM dropped the color due to plant problems I think with the paint.
So theres no listed yellow color for 85 in the books as far as I know.

Anyone else have the yellow paint code for the later years to share?

Maybe scorp? He seems to know the yellow codes on this stuff.
