Orange OR Go Mango??
« on: June 16, 2007 - 04:03:28 PM »
My 70 Challenger is originally a B5 exterior.  I"m thinking about going "orange".  I've seen paint coded  K2 for Go-Mango and  999 for Orange (from the mopar list).    Whats' up with each color?

I'm thinking a T/A clone ....which orange was available on TAs?

For 1970, there were three oranges available on Challengers, including the T/As;

Code '999' is a special order paint code and can be any color not normally available for that year or model.

go mango  seems more bright, the hemi orange alittle more red.  I kinda like the pop of the go-mango.

I like hemi orange with the metallic removed, it cleans the color up.

I like the brighter Go Mango.............but then again Im predjudiced cause i bought a Go Mango car.   I wanted either it or a Go Green, or Limelight.    I think the Impact color cars bring more money too.   But thats just my opinion.
