At a car show about 15 years ago my wife saw a 71 Corvette with a beautiful blue paint job.
She asked the owner what color it was and he said it was factory GM color named "Bridgehamton Blue". (GM WA4002 or 979)
For some reason she has never forgot the name of the color and wants me to paint my 71 Chevelle Bridgehampton Blue when I finish the sheetmetal and body work.
If I recall it was a metallic but not sure.
Is anyone familiar with this factory Corvette color? What color primer should be used under it?
I also read on a Corvette site there was a color difference in the formula and that confused me.
If it is indeed a metallic would it be single stage or base coat, clear coat?
I won't be ready for paint for quite awhile and I just want to do my proper research. Any help greatly appreciated.
