An OEM willing gold Mopar Nationals 69 Swinger 340 is well know, and the original owner says it was orange.


......Not quite. The current family is the second owner, the father purchased the car used when it was approximately 6 months old per the current owner (the son I believe?) when we judged it in Vegas roughly 10 years ago. So, there is no evidence, other than hearsay, that the engine was originally orange. Hence we gave it a deduction for the engine color.
