I have seen a photo of the car when it was blue and white. Can't remember where I saw it, but a rare photo of the car before it was silver.

The car ('67 GTX) was originally all blue. I have a photo of it in the hardcover book "Woodward Avenue" by Robert Genat...pic shows the car (pre-Bullet status) being tested at a dragstrip in California, by Chrysler engineers. It is wearing 9 inch slicks, and a Michigan manufactures license plate.

Was blue originally, but was then had a white painted horizontal section and said GTX PLYMOUTH in the white. Photo I saw said it was taken at Detroit Dragway Chrysler Test Day in early 1967, but date stamp says Jan 68 from what I can make of it.

Detroit Dragway test day ? .... ???

I thought THAT AD with the blue car was taken at Motor City Dragway

The major testing that DC and MP did was at Milan Dragway ... for many of the factory sponsored or assisted cars AND the factory TEST VEHICLE for some of the DC/MP parts .... anyone remember what that car was ... and it’s name ?

It wasn't an ad, it was when the car was blue and white.
