LM '500' paint scheme

Post by viewmaster »

Hey everyone. I searched a bit, and couldn't come up with this topic...so I need some help, and maybe someone else does too.

In a couple other threads, I have sedan projects going on. One is a 700, the other is a 500. It's the latter that I need help on re: paint. It is originally white w/ red interior. I just want to make sure of the color of the rear taillight panel. Did they, Chevy, start with the 700, painting this panel silver (argent)? Was the 500 same as the rest of the vehicle?

Any help would be great...thanks.

Okay...thank you for the help sixty2rampside. The 700 I have will not be an original, so I think I'm gonna paint the panel Argent. I like the "sporty" looks of it.

Thanks again.
