Hello, and thank you. No real updates on the car at this time. Over this past fall, I took a few pictures of the car that I'll post here both with and without the hardtop installed. I do not have a paint code. Ivy Green, a period color on mid-60's Fords, was what the original owner was going for. This color equated to a more modern paint formulation called "Woodland Green Metallic" which was applied to Toyota and Lexus cars in more recent years. When I took that information to my body man when having the LeMans Hardtop color matched, we found there were about 6 different variations of the color on his paint pallet. In the end with none of those being an exact match, it took his Sikkens paint supplier having a look at it with his $10,000 camera to get the matching formulation.

I can see by your forum ID that you may be an FIA body-style fan? What are your aspirations?
