I have a 62 Tempest Lemans that the original owner painted Black but the original color is red. Can anyone tell me what the official GM/Pontiac name for that color is. I think it can be derived from the vin # but I was hping to expedite the process. Thanks in advance for your help

You can see a 1962 color chart at www.autocolorlibrary.com. It looks like the bright red that year was Mandalay Red, the dark red was Belmar Red.
There should be a letter code on the trim tag of your car, it corresponds to the color. Mandalay Red is code V, Belmar Red is code L. |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
