Is it  true that there were different shades of "maroon" used on the Westy?
I  heard that prior to 90, the shade was called "Burgundy," and from 90 on,
it  was called Bordeaux Red Pearl Metallic (LC3Y).

i think your thinking of titian red which is kind of a metallic light
reddish burgundy.   my '89 westy is titian red, which is the last year  for that
color. '90-'91 darker maroon westys were  Bordeaux.
