Market commentary

Plymouth and Dodge in 1970 71 came up with some of the most intriguing color names in Detroit history, particularly for their so called High Impact (Plymouth) and High Performence (Dodge) colors. Trouble is, most people have forgotten that the same paint codes used different names. For instance, this Dodge Challenger R T 330 Six Pack (a similar Cuda was a Six Barrel) was described as Vitamin C Orange but its really Go Mango. A complete chart is posted at www.rickcarey.com. OK, enough nit picking. This is a beautiful convertible with a dynamite drive train. Closed after it crossed the block, the buyer got a very good value for the money.
