It's a very dark blue - almost black.

Ah, Gotcha. It is always difficult to photograph paint colors. That blue 356 I linked to can look Navy blue without lots of bright and harsh indoor lighting, on an overcast day.

Anyway, A red interior should look good. I have a soft spot for red interiors, but never pick a paint color that pairs well.

That is a very nice blue. Suits the car perfectly I think

I sure hope so --- 'cause I'm thinkin' it's going to be that color sometime next week.


I always liked the Ford Washington Blue like on a '36 -- but it's just not dark enough -- and I always wanted to paint the hull on my boat "Flag Blue" and just never did.... but when I saw the Phil Remington '27 - BINGO - that was it.

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.

Just keep the hood closed.

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 .
