Title: FE paint colour Post by: fe van on October 27, 2017, 10:42:01 AM G'day All,
My question is regarding the colour turquoise & sarasota white, the paint supplier had the sarasota in his list but not the turquoise so I picked one that I thought was close but the sarasota to me was to green (see pic) I have only ever seen one FE in this colour and for memory it was more of a white with a slight green tinge to it just wondering has anyone painted this colour in recent times or does anyone have a car in these colours so I can get more info as these are the colours I have chosen for my van and would like to get them as close as I can. thanks Darren (https://s1.postimg.org/8k8xtu0zl7/IMG_5766.jpg) ($2) Title: Re: FE paint colour Post by: DJ on October 27, 2017, 11:52:13 AM Just in case you have'nt already used this reference ....
http://www.fefcholden.org.au/techinfo/gmhpaintnumbers.html It shows paint code 7473 as Sarasota White, & even allowing for variances on a computer screen it looks like a shade of green standing alone. Maybe it would appear to be a lot lighter next to a darker colour & outside in sunlight. Hope someone has the right combination for you to compare.

I think people here will know this FE & the colours. (https://i.imgur.com/m4PITRt.jpg) Title: Re: FE paint colour Post by: customFC on October 28, 2017, 02:43:06 PM Hey Darren
The Trax model could be a reference point as it is Sarasota and Teal.

Like I said, talk to Colin at the next club meeting, or PM me if you want his number.
