John,
As you can see from Zulu's post, Hialeah Green cars are about.
Several NSW Club members have them, and there was a Ute and at least 1 car at Mt Gambier Nationals in 2008, both with good paint.
Black Utilities came with following Trim: Fall Red; Dravo Green; Mesa Tan;
My last post does not list all available ute colours.
Geoff
I've never clapped eyes on one but I reckon a Factory Black ute with Fall Red upholstery would look good
Hialeah Green with Dravo Green upholstery would be nice also
Below pic of Dravo Green upholstery

Thanks guys great info and great feed back but what colour do you guys want me to build this car, I love the black but it's not about me.
Regards and thanks
John
Black would be good and I also like the idea of green. Could I suggest going with a colour that Trax haven't done in early Holdens? Most of the buyers of your ute will have many Trax cars also. Doing a different colour will add to the overall interest of the displays.
Cambridge Blue - but i am being selfish ;D
good feed back guys but need more.
Thanks
John
Cambridge blue
Possibly Cambridge Blue? ;D
There,s only one colour and that,s Ascot Grey ;D ;D

I beg to differ from both you and Paul, I reckon Skyline Blue is the go...
Keith
YEP!!!!! First in ...... best dressed ...... Skyline blue. Also a good color as an undercoat to paint it any color you like. ;)
Keep it going guys.
Thanks
John
Can you blokes please decide already (so that we can get to the really important FE models) 8)
Might I suggest Cambridge Blue? ;)
Guys what about half in Black with red trim and half in either Blue or green.
The FE wagon pattern has started will put some shots up soon.
You will have to help get rid of the FC's though as we have not sold enough to fund the FE.
Red Devil.
Ahh, that was your mistake Red Devil.
You went with the ugly, younger sibling first.
Now if you had done the FE's first, they all would have sold quickly, and you could then do a few FC's for those that way inclined ;D
I will have to be very diplomatic with a reply to that so I wont reply as that has never been my strong point, but I'm now understanding that people love FE's to.
If we do the FE she will be a cracker.
Thanks for your input well received.
Red_ Devil
I know you wanted to do an original colour John, but is it too late to suggest Holden Heaven red for the ute model? :) Cheers, Tim.
