Shades of Blue

[Flieger]

Fishcop, I wish the Pacific wasn't quite so big so I could see your car in person.

I love several of the various shades of blue used on the early cars. On my 72ST build the car was originally Tangerine which I also think is a great, period color and I'll very likely keep the car that color. But when I see cars like these two, it keeps me up at night a bit. You all recognize these two cars which were both at the Coronado Speed Festival last month. Dalmation Blue and Acid Blue. I love em' both.

Max, flights are cheap

Pretty sure Arrow and Acid have the same code (L305). Great colours! Pretty sure this blue is also sometime called "Monarco Blue", but stand to be corrected on that.

Took these over the weekend whilst cleaning out the garage...

Fading light and then cool-white fluros.

My goodness, John. That is a breathtaking car.

Thanks Will. Four years work coming to an end When it's all finally ironed out I will do a bit of a photo essay

I can't wait. Ever since you posted pics on Pelican on the Michelin TB's, I've been on pins and needles. Just when I think it can't look any cooler, you post more progress.

John,

That's looking so good, I can see some drives in our future, with all the local cars coming to completion.

I still have to come up and check the beast out.....trying to make it to Tim's to search for that elusive Norma clamp.

Did you get your horn grill's re chromed? I need to do something about the crappy illfitting repo's

Here is my 76. I understand it to be a factory Arrow Blue. AFAIK, the respray is actually a recent OEM blend from a non-german brand I won't besmirch this board with, but that it is a correct shade for Arrow?

Would love any input if my understanding is correct. Regardless of it's name, I love it!
