Notes:
Special Paint (RPO ZP3) was coded differently from different plants. As seen here, this Kansas City (even though it's a Malibu sport coupe) example put two dashes ( - - ) on the trim tag itself where other plants may have simply left the paint code area blank. If you have a special paint ordered El Camino, please let us know where the car was built and what the trim tag indicates.

Lower | Upper | |
Unique combinations found on El Caminos. Note that even though the second color code is normally the "upper" color but the body is the second color code with the first color code being the top and lower sill panel. | ||

* Placer Gold/Antique White is not shown in the 1972 Chevelle color chart (that I could find), but it has been found on a 1972 El Camino trim tag.
The double-letter codes below are ordering codes. Where applicable on the Fisher Body number plate a single letter is used.
