Location: The Mile High City | That appears to be Copper Glow and Jet Black - which is a great and unusual color combination. However, I have been known to be wrong in the past and that could be Metallic Suede? With the exception of the driver's front fender, it appears to be a clean and original looking car. |

Location: Royal Oak, MI | Could also be Metallic Coral and Jet Black... ? Probably Copper Glow though. Hard to tell with the aging of the paint. |

Location: The Mile High City | Those seem to be the prime suspects. I pulled up the paint chip chart and it seems more likely to be Copper Glow, but like Boris says - hart to tell with the aging of the paint. This Belvedere color scheme reminds me of the Regal Lancer color schemes.
On this car, it is not hard to imagine fixing the driver side front fender, re-spraying the wheels silver, and getting a set of wide whites to make a really neat original-looking car with a good chance of recouping your costs. Or you could just drive and enjoy.

Location: Newark, Texas (Fort Worth) | Copper and black is cool, and with a copper 350, it would be even cooler! Marc.

Location: NY & VT | Anyone have a pic of a copper 350 engine? ... I assume it's only in '58 Plym as the 350 in my Dodge-built '58 FireSweep was silver... |

Location: The Mile High City | I have heard of the copper Fury V-800 engine. The Dodge engines were all argent from the Getaway Six to the Super D500.
The 1958 Plymouth I used to own had a gold 318 with the go-pak. I don't think that was correct, but it was pretty cool.

Location: NY & VT | Terrible pictures of the damage and devastation all along the front range - our heart goes out to the afflicted!
That V800 looks beautiful in the copper/gold color scheme... I'm considering it for my 354, even though it's not original I don't care, to me the engine is the heart of the car and has to look good! The stock silver on the 354 Poly just doesn't make it for me.
