Lets Play A Game: Last Of The Convertibles

I remember the new models always showed up on the dealership floor in September of the prior year, so an August build date would fit that scenario.

September 23, 1969 to be exact. I ran across this info recently.....

CM27T0C114682 is currently for sale in Ohio. Thanks to @67newport for the tag!

DR8 originally, now red. Well equipped. The first owner seems to have been Ms. Theresa Johnson from Springfield, Massachusetts.

And... that would be? Not all of us speak code; I know I don't. DR8 is???
Dark Red Poly. Aka burgundy metallic. I have answered similar questions from you in the past :poke::p
 
But he said it's now red. ???
Lotsa shades of red
@Snotty -- R stands for "Red", the number thereafter stands for how dark the shade is from 1 to 9.

ER6 is the color in my avatar (aka "Scorch Red" in Chrysler/Plymouth literature). The "E" in "ER6" stands for the first year when the color was introduced, 1969 in my case.

To confuse things, the first letter does not start showing up till 1970. So @Don Stolfi 's 1969 R6 Polara 'vert is painted the exact same shade as my ER6 1970 ER6 Polara 'vert.

To confuse things further, E also stands for Red -- with FE5 very, very close to my eyes (hard to tell in photos) to ER6. In the same vein, GE7 (a color introduced in 1971, as per the "G" in the code) looks quite close to DR8 (a 1968 color).

Yes you have, but the reality still exists: I don't know what those codes are. I would believe I am not alone.

Thanks for filling in the blank.

But, what about my original color, EA4? Platinum Metallic/Silver. Those letters are not going to lead to those colors at all.

(And for those who might be thinking, "Thought he said he doesn't read code?," I don't, but I do have a picture of the fender tag.)

E = 1969 first year when the color was made
A = silver color group
4 = lighter color (scale of 1 to 9)
 
Bought the car in 2015 and sold it in 2019 to a guy here in the Netherlands.
After i bought it I rebuild the front end and new shocks all around. New legendary front seat upholstery and top boot cover and new carpet.
Car ran very well and even took it to spain and back from here (the Netherlands).

Thanks not @Samplingman and @70 Sport Suburban , we have the fender tags of two rare 1970 Polara 'verts that @1969vert500 recently put up for sale:

DL27T0D203980 is an EV2 orange T-code, with Q VON and super-loaded (2 tags). DL27T0D203980 's SBD was Feb. 17, 1970:

The other is an EW1 white T-code, a Rose Bowl car previously owned by @polara71 -- DL27T0D137743 is in pieces, but is all there:

PM27G0D218323 is currently for sale on eBay. The fender tag can be seen in one of the high-res photos. Unfortunately, the part with the SBD is hidden. From the records that we have gathered in this thread, the SBD should be in the first half of March.

The car has been re-painted in the original ER6 Scorch Red. The interior is the M4XA Charcoal-and-Black split bench-back interior (the ad says it is black, but it is clear from the photos in the ad that the interior was partly grey -- even if the front bench has been refinished in a shiny black).

I see V3X black vinyl top, H51 manual A/C, G11 all-windows tinted glass, L31 fender repeaters, R11 radio, and V5X side molding inserts. Do I also see Y39? @69CoronetRT

A car I bought a few months ago, been monitoring these threads for years, thought I’d submit my convertible and post for the first time.
