There's a '67 on ebay that may be painted with the elusive "Royal Plum"
color. Here's the link:

I'm currently 3000 miles from my library, so I'm not able to check for the
availability of any other maroon/burgandy hues in that year. I have only seen
one other Royal Plum car in my entire Corvair history. I once considered
spraying one of mine in royal plum and went as far as purchasing a pint of the
color and spraying a test panel. As I recall, the test panel was quite dark
looking and I choose another color. The one car I saw in person was quite
striking. Two other rare LM colors that I've only seen once were a Cameo Beige Corsa
and a Chateau Slate Corsa. Both were convertibles and both were, umm, less
than striking in their beauty.
