    Welcome to cuda-challenger.com!  Great place here to hang out and enjoy MOPARS!!   I assume you are talking about the one that crashed in 1971??  I'm looking at a picture of it and it looks more like E5 (bright red) . . . Go Mango is a 1970 color and not available in 71.  DO you have a pace car??  Hope you enjoy the site!   :bigsmile:

    I'll scan the pic of the original car while pacing the track when I get back from an appointment to show you were I came up with it.  The pic was taken right before it crashed.   :dunno:   Give me a few hours and I'll be back!   :bigsmile:

    Now I have to politely disagree . . . here is a pic of a 71 pace car that doesn't look orange to me??  :nono:  then there is the other pic I told you about . . looks more red than orange but it could be the lighting or bad pic.   :dunno:  Hope this helps!

    Ok then, all the 1971 Indianappolis Speedway 500 pace cars were Hemi orange.  :wave:

    Here are some photos of the car that wrecked during the race, the photos are from last spring;
