Is that Viking blue?

I wonder if a grille splitter would fit/work on my Backdraft.
Thank you! I am not sure about the grill splitter on a Backdraft. Maybe something can be fabricated/fit. The fellow I bought it from is a vintage racer and car collector. It took him about 7 years to complete, and he wanted it as accurate as possible. I still cannot believe he sold it! You guys are really making me jealous...I miss "home" so much. It is about 25 degrees right now. The car will not come out of hibernation until maybe March.

It's Guardsman Blue. There are a few variations of it, but this is the true Shelby color from the 60's.



Here it is at a local show...the picture was posted on a website. It is tough to see the true color in a picture.



Back to the thread and tires...who do you feel makes the most authentic looking vintage tire?
