It's a very dark blue - almost black.
Matt there are some really high quality pics back in the thread of the color.

GW did Brizio end up matching the paint off the paint chip from the owner of 27?

I said it befor and will again this 33 will be perfect, on the outside.

Yes Rob, the owner of the '27 went to the effort to pull a panel and sent it to Roy for color matching. Roy knew who painted the car and thought he could get the code but apparently they didn't have it. It was above the call of duty for the owner to put himself out there for us. Kudos to him!


I promised Roy I would never open the hood in public.

That owner's picture should be in the dictionary next to the definition of Hot Rodder .

I told Roy I didn't even need to approve a paint sample -- I figured if it was good enough for him - it's good enough for me. But of course they sent one anyway!


SAR only suggested "mods" that cost a ton of money and don't really add value. While they're nice - unless you really walk around the car and think about them - they don't "add". They double the cost of the project... in time and money.

Roy just puts his head down and rocks it... there's nothing special about the build whatsoever (my choice!) -- but I'll guarantee that if the '33 and the '32 are parked side by side... people would be all over the '33 and never notice the '32.

I have finally been drug (kicking and screaming) into an "Instagram" account... and I can or I should say I have been ALLOWED to follow Vintage Color Studios -- and they had pics yesterday and said it's in "final primer". Hope that means there will be pics with color sometime soon.

Play your cards right Greg, and maybe they will 'let you' be their facebook 'friend' too.
