Not sure if the colors were the same in '74 and '75. Actually I didn't even know they had different names. My car can look deep purple or even black depending on the light.
As far as the wheels goes I bought them from American that way back about 4 years ago I think it was. They weren't offered in that finish in the catalog but they made them that way for me. I had to have them that way, that's the way they looked in the old days other than the polished rim. I had someone at a car show a few years ago tell me that he had tried to get them that way from American and he couldn't. I don't know about that because you can see there they are. God knows they might be the only ones like that? I hope not because all that means to me is someone will try to steal them with my luck.
