1969 Air Grabber Lid Cover Color?

[Anthony]

Hi guys, wondering what the proper color is to paint the lid on my 383 4B Air Grabber Lid?
The way mine looks, it has been painted before.. with a very 'strange' orange.
Anyway, it needs a proper face-lift.

THANKS! AJ

I believe the correct color is "Hemi Orange". The same color they painted the engines in 1969. I don't believe they had an air grabber option in 1968 though, so paint it what you want if you put one on your car and you have a 68. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong on that. Here is mine after a fresh resto.

Air grabber was a 69 option as said. Not sure of the orange, it could be hemi orange but Totally Auto has most of the paints you would need

I believe it was Hemi Orange as well.

Not race hemi orange if you happen to find it.
