Vette(s): 1969 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Just bought it from my uncle who owned it since 1971. Fathom green, green interior. 350/300, T400.
I went to Advance Auto today to pick up some engine paint. I noticed that there's 2 Chevy Oranges. Chevy Orange/Red and plain Chevy Orange. Which is correct for a '69 350?
Thanks,
Matt

I believe you want the Orange only. My father bought the orange/red for his '63 Impala SS and it didn't look right at all. For my '76 Vette, I made sure to use the orange. POR-15 (makers of the "paint over rust" paint) also makes a high temp Chevy Orange as well.

Hope this helps.
