Title: Paint identification - any help appreciated
Post by: Blake@diyhemi.com on February 13, 2017, 06:41:29 AM
I found pictures of a 71 car that really caught my eye. The color is amazing and I was wondering if anyone here knew of the car and the color it is painted. It looks almost like Jamaica Blue but with less green hue. It also looks deeper than B5 blue.

Any help is appreciated!

Agreed, that's a beautiful color. I'd call the Texas Cars company at the number listed on the sign and see what they can tell you.

It looks like more of a modern Viper blue.  @CudaKat (http://forum.e-bodies.org/index.php?action=profile;u=79)'s '73 is Subaru WRX blue.

Maybe Viper Blue?  Looks similar to the 96 Viper GTS color.   :dunno:

That was my guess too...For sure not a 70-71 colour. :alan2cents:

Possibly bonzi blue.
