Title: Dark Blue Paint
Post by: 87 3.8 CAT on April 23, 2005, 03:53:48 AM
Anyone else have the dark blue paint on their Cat / Bird ? I would love to see pictures. I'm pretty sure this color is stock, but mine is faded real bad, with clear coat flaking and missing in several places. I think I want original color, but looking through most of the pictures I can find posted, I can't find anything close to have a good idea what it will look like.

The color is Medium Blue Clear Coat Metallic.

My dark blue T-bird also has major issues with the clearcoat. Seems like I see a lot of dark blue Fords with clearcoat problems. I don't see as many black Fords (or other dark colors) having the same problems.. although I do see 'em once in awhile.

I happen to remember that my first cat was the Dark Blue Clearcoat Metallic that has been said, and I happen to have it on here in the user's rides section.

I'd love to have a 240Z or a 510 done up like a Bob Sharp car.
