Your center caps of your wheels are light argent silver for 1970.

I am not a Cuda person, but I'll say your grill and tail panel are like the Challenger...Dark argent silver.

I'm willing to bet on it...   :misbehaving:

Not sure about the tailpan as I always paint them orsoganol black, but the grill is dark argent and the wheel center caps are light argent. The wheels themselves are a different silver. Contact Totally auto inc they carry all the paints.

I use Krylon Dull Aluminum on the wheels themselves and then a coat or two of Satin Clear...I think that's from Rust-Oleum.
