so is that blue one yours plutonic??

i love my sonic blue. if it were me, id go with that.


by looking at the color chart, i'd say that the car is closest to grabber blue actually.

i still think that color is actually Blue Glow. or it could be the Electric Blue from a 90's jeep or dodge product.

My 69 Mach1 is painted electric blue from a 2004 PT Cruiser. My aviatar is the pic of the car after paint.

Yes. The previous owner painted it that color. I had to take the car to my local paint supplier so they could put their computer color analyzer thingy on it. Though I never would have chosen a Honda color for it, since its a "pre-existing condition" and I don't want to go through the hassle of jamming, I'll keep it. Plus I really like the color.

I agree. If I was going to paint the door jambs, I'd probably go with Sonic Blue

Update

Work has begun. Went to the shop today and the hood and both fenders are removed to get at the cowl for repair.

I am leaning toward the Newer Ford Grabber Orange with Black on the hood and the lower body area. What do you Guys think? Kerry

I agree, New Grabber Orange w/ Black. That will look killa.

Copperhead

have you guys seen the color of Copperhead on Stacey Davids website? He painted a 67 C10 truck on Trucks TV last year. It is a good color. Any comments? You can find the color by going to Gears TV website. IT is a PPG color.

Went by the body shop again or Friday. The car is stripped to bare metal. Rear honeycomb piece, rear bumper, trunk lid, tail lights, marker lights, door handles, and door locks all removed. Got to look at the damage in the cowl area. Both sides need work. Makes you wonder why they made the cowls that way? Also found a few more holes in the left rear wheel area sheet metal.

Here's how my Dad painted his '73 Mach. At first I thought it was going to be a tad bit quiet or conservative until I saw it in the flesh. I thought it struck an excellent balance, and a lot of it was because of the generous metal flake (hard to see, it was cloudy the day these pics were taken). I can't recall the color offhand, but PM me if you like it at all and I'll try and figure out what it was.
