Neither really hit the spot for "correctness". Too glossy & too dark compared to original. Try to find a Semigloss, if one even exists in a can form.

Here's the actual color that it should be. Whether or not the paint shows up this color is beyond me though.

Think I used the 1620 on my Chevelle...

Don't really care if the motor and other orange parts are glossy...I do though make sure the black pieces are satin.
