Title: photos and colour codes
Post by: NES304 on June 06, 2006, 09:06:22 PM
Any one have photos of white (not cream) FC specials with a red insert? if so can you post em and let me know exactly what colour and shades are used (so I can find a combo I like for mine).
Thanks for any help

Don't know the colours, but it looks cool

This one's a favourite of mine, again no details though

Porsche Guards(?) Red seemed to be a favourite bright red a while ago.

Monza Red (I think F#$d colour, but a Monza is a Chev isn't it?) was also a popular colour a little while back.

I'm sure I've seen it parked just off the T-Way at Smithfield (looks to be where that pic was taken?)

SRVLIVES, the Pic is taken just around the corner from Adelaide Airport and AFAIK it is an SA car. I was actually in a Monaro show when I spotted this parked outside.

nes138, don't know about the Commy, that pic was "pinched" from someone else's post of an AHD Show.

Nes,
AFAIK the commodore would be marinello red.
I quite like the sting red on my commodore.

cheers
Scott

I could be wrong, but for some reason I remember there being a dark shade of red for VB - VC - VH (I'm not sure how many models it continued through) Commodores known as "firethorn".

Regards,
