'79 Limited pin-striping/ E6 paint?
anyone know if / what the original pin striping was on the 1979 Limited Editions?
also any suggestions on how I would get the original E6 code "Beat Black" paint duplicated?
... a former owner repainted this car a deep black which is ok but considering getting it done again in the original metallic charcoal black

Pin Stripe
There were two side by side. One white one red I peeled them off hated them. You can get the paint mixed at carquest I even have it in a rattle can. I found a company on the net that will mix any color you want and put it in a rattle can even the clear coat.

thanks tunafish ,
can't see that looking very good . don't really like the pin stripe much anyway , I'll probably leave as is without,
have you any pictures of your car inside / outside ? ...... also wondering if the front window molding is supposed to be chrome or painted?
also is that box under my passenger seat an amp?

Interesting, didn't even know 79's had LE. Mine was purchased new and has a 11/78 build date. Only models then were S and GS. As I remember only options at time were aluminum wheels and sunroof.

very true. mazda has beeen good at releasing limited edition and special 7's. in 79 there was the Limited, in 1980 there was the 10th Anniversary (celebrating Mazda's 10 years in North America) and the Leather Sport. in 1983 there was the Limited Edition. in 1988 there was the 10th Anniversary(celebrating 10 years of the RX-7).
