I thnk that the pics of HB/B in My Gallery are pretty close to reality. As said before in this thread, it is a very rich, yet bright blue.



Good luck with your colour decision ...

Thanks in advance.
I bought a PH/Wh roof/mirrors and had the white painted red...I unintentionally got a "counterfiet" checkmate...pics are in my gallery of the before and after Ducky was painted....Mick

Scott,

You know I love your car! Just save me a spot in your shop to paint my car's roof black. You said it would be easy cuz I won't have a sun roof, remember? And because it looks so awesome, I want the stripe like yours!!

agranger, your PW looks awesome too. I think the PW looks best with painted arches. Saw a MCSC in Vegas, it had painted arches, body color dash with chrome accents...it was the best looking PW I'd seen. I swear, these cars just keep getting better looking!

Thanks

Brigett and all who have comented. I am really torn between my cr/b, which is ALWAYS the right color for my stuff, and the lemon yellow cars that were in abundance in vegas. The yellows (no longer available, of course) might have swayed me had I seen a few of them before ordering mine. flannelhippie-you cant go wrong with any color, really-these cars are all so awesome in any color, you will love it. One thing I wish I had ordered though, is the chrome line interior-now that I have seen it in a number of cars, I really wish I had ordered it. as for your car brigett-we have lots of possibilities by the time you are ready to change anything. janet is going to get hers soon.
