I will possibly be sending off samples to the USA early next week and just wanted to do a final colour popularity check.
Here is a scan of the pristine samples that I have, my cars only have the off-white and the blue and I have never seen the darker colour (grey/brown) used before.
I have also been told there may be a green that was used a fair bit too.
Other research says that there is 11 colours all up with 7 of these being used fairly extensively, depending on final price I will probably only be getting 3-4 colours made at this stage.
So that a good comparison can be made I have scanned the samples against a Vegemite Jar (everyone should have one of those  ::) )
If there are any colours that I have missed please let me know, even better if you can send me samples to keep or borrow.

The people that have responded in the past, I thank you and encourage you to provide input to the poll again.
This is a serious investment of time and possibly money for me, so if the feedback from this poll is poor I will write off the project as a bad idea. ideally I'd like to see at least 50 responses to the poll to make the data worthwhile.

Hello,
       I would be interested in the blue that is the background of your shot, I have the green in my FE however I do not have any samples of the material as what is in the vehicle is all I have.  I could send you a pic to give an idea of the colour if this would help.
       
                                I appreciate your efforts and hope others will also
                                                             Cheers

Looking good, also looks like I need a sample of the light green  :-\

Hi Stinky,
I have a couple of samples to donate....PM me your address and they will be in the post tomorrow. I think that one is your grey/brown, the other maybe the green you are after. They look better in the flesh...can't be bothered calibrating photoshop colours.



I'll keep the Vegemite..

P.S. would be great if this works out....I will be up for several.

This may seem like a silly question Stinky but how do I vote, there's nothing on the page that says cast vote and I've run the mouse over everything in the poll bit and nothing lights up.

Pedro, the poll part is now closed as I got the feedback I was after.

Things are progressing slowly, as soon as there is reportable news I'll let everyone know.

Hi Stinky,

Hope this works for you, the hood lining is one sticking point on our rebuild.

By the way is the original seat material available anywhere in OZ, as my boss left for the states today and took a sample with him to see if he can source sum over their. will keep everybody posted if successfull.
