Hi All,
Here is
my dilemma, I had always thought my car color for my 59 Imperial was "copper
spice". The person I bought it from (second owner) thought that was the color
name. After looking at color samples of copper spice I wonderer why it did not
look like the color of my car. Copper spice had an orangey brown color to it,
when my car looks like a shiny penny. After receiving my factory specs letter
from Chrysler historical foundation, I found that the color was "Fiesta copper"
which I thought explained the mystery, but now I find no such color is to be
found (no listing from 1959 to 1963). Was this a special order color that were
so few that it never got documented? Can anyone shed any light on this? I do
believe that the car was custom ordered by an Imperial salesman that worked at a
dealer in Philadelphia (first owner). Please, if anyone could help, my only
recourse is to get the inside truck lid scanned by a paint shop, but I would
prefer the original paint #. Thanks to the few that replied the last time I
posted this. Painting will start as soon as I can get the correct
color.
