Body:
Sandy,

I don't mean to be a pain here, but I just want to get the Coupe paint
colors straight.

I realize that none of the coupes were repainted by ASC so the colors for
these cars are going to be production Capri colors and codes.
What I would like to know is did ASC call the colors of the Coupes by their
original Ford/Mercury names or for did they "re-name" some of the colors of
the Coupes with their own names for marketing purposes.

Thanks,
Brent
