So I started stripping and straightening my 79 Turbo Coupe for paint. I had always been curious about the 2 tone black and white interior, however now I'm REALLY curious. My car is currently a super faded beige, but the areas it's flaking off (jams, between body panels, cracks, etc.) it's pink!!! A darker pink than the mary kay cars I've seen, too... I know that playboy gave the "playmate of the year" a car, but cannot find any info beyond 1976 (soooo close, lol)

Does anybody know what car was for either the 78 or 79 playmate of the year? Could it really be a Mary Kay Regal?

I REALLY doubt I'd repaint it pink (I'm just not that guy and my daughter isn't quite old enough for a car) however it would be interesting to know the history of this Regal (prior to me horsetrading for it and rebuilding it.)


Thanks for any help! 8)

I doubted it was for a playmate of the year, just the same as I doubt it was a Mary Kay car. There's no paint code on it, and I HIGHLY doubt it was a pink repaint.

hmmmmmmm
