EW1 paint code on a '72 Dodge? - 12/09/12 09:02 AM

I thought that "EW1 Spinnaker White" was a Chrysler-Plymouth color only, but I am looking at a '72 Dodge with this paint code on the fender tag. Is this possible? Does it make a difference if the car is Canadian-spec ("C") and built at Lynch Road? Did cars going to Canada have different names for the paint or should there still be a GW1 on there? Thanks! Paul

In 1970, it was EW1. 1971 was GW3. In 1972, they went back to using EW1.

C-Bodies stayed with EW1 for 1971, instead of switching to GW3.

My 78 Plymouth is EW1, in fact it's on the fender plate twice.

Here before long I'm going to need to locate some of that, which will need to work over 2k epoxy primer
