There are no known numbers for any particular color for a particular series or body style whether it be a solid color or two-tone. The numbers shown below are valid for all series and body style Chevelles except where noted for the Concours Station Wagon There are also no known numbers for the different colors of convertible or vinyl tops. So just how many red (or any color) SS 396 Chevelle sport coupes (or any other series) were built is not known and cannot even be calculated with any accuracy. All Chevelle assembly plants have the lower body color first followed by the upper body color (or convertible/vinyl top) color. There are no special colors for the SS 396 series.

GM of Canada Paint Code Chart
General Motors of Canada, LTD. offered many of the same colors as their U.S. counterpart. Although these colors are listed as 1967 Passenger Colors on the paint code chart. It's unknown if these additional colors were available on Chevelles as well. Several Canadian colors were identical to U.S. colors, only the sales names were a bit different.

Color vs. Sales Name
Paint color names often differ from the advertised Sales Name. One example might be where the factory paint color is simply RED but the sales name may be BOLERO RED or CRANBERRY RED. Yes, the paint mixing formulas are different between BOLERO RED and CRANBERRY RED but to the factory it was still just red. In a case where their may be two or more hues of a color with sales names such as DEEPWATER BLUE, NANTUCKET BLUE, and MARINA BLUE, the factory colors are simply shown as MEDIUM BLUE, DARK BLUE, or BRIGHT BLUE. A given paint color for a year may have a different sales name for Chevrolet than it does for say Buick, Oldsmobile, or Pontiac. An example of this is the 1969 sales name for Chevrolet of HUGGER/MONACO ORANGE is the same color as the 1969/1970 Pontiac sales name of CAROUSEL RED. Same color, same OEM supplier mixing formula, just different sales names for the two GM divisions.
