I would join this forum and make a post regarding your search in the Concours forum, there are MCA concours judges over there who may be able to help.

Good luck and make sure you let us know when this question is finally answered.

hey i know this is a few years after this thread was posted and i hope you see this, but i just picked up a mustang with the same color code. according to the original owner and some talking with classic ford guys, this color code was part of a western states promotion that ford put on in 68 and 69. it was called the "custom rainbow series" or something to that extent. There are very few made and were all special order (as far as i have read so far) these cars are very rare! according to pages online under 500 were build in this rainbow edition and thats all the colors total, then you have to drop into the different colors, and they get even more rare. i cant believe i stumbled across one and picked it up. i was going to build a beast project with a 460 and all that, but knowing all this new information i think i have to build i back to original and have a #match special edition. here is the 1st website i stumbled across, hope you are able to get all the info you want, i am looking for the same thing so if i find out i will post it: http://mustangattitude.com/mustang/6...ofcolors.shtml
