Notes:
(1) Only available with SS option except on special order.
When special ordered on a NON-SS optioned car, the paint code would
show - - (two dash characters) or the OEM paint supplier's mixing code
will be shown. Some documentation calls the color
Hugger Orange while others call
it Monaco Orange. The PPG color
chip chart lists it as Hugger Orange
for all Chevrolets except the Corvette which is listed as Monaco Orange;
both carry the same PPG paint code 2084.
For consistency on this site paint code 72 will be referred to as Hugger
Orange when referring to the 1969 Chevelle.
Both the Hugger Orange and Daytona Yellow could be ordered on any non-SS Chevelle but the trim tag would reflect the paint code section with either a blank area, two dash characters ( - - ) or the DuPont mixing formula. Special order paint had to be approved by the Fleet & Special Order. Special order paint could be any color available by any automotive paint manufacturer except Cadillac Firemist colors.
* Interesting to note that even though the paint codes on the trim tag changed to numbers from letters, factory invoices still used letters to identify the paint color of the more 'standard' colors like 'CC' for white, 'RR' for red, etc.
* Additional factory colors were offered on Canadian Chevrolet models that were not offered on their U.S. built counterparts. Whether all of these additional colors were available on Chevelles is not known, but many were.
