red/blue
Blykins,
Our Shop has painted many 4000 series cars. The dealer we paint for does most of his in red. The rangoon red. When we first painted a viking blue car, I thought how cute, until we assembled the car. The Blue, HANDS DOWN!! That is one great unusual Color. If you still need the ppg codes let me know. Premier Motor Sports chuckn@big-w.com The Best Chuck |
Viking(princess) blue-as shipped from AC on the original
Would've gone with it on mine but every other Cobra seems to be some variation of blue or red w/wo stripes Wimbledon white with blue stripes and roundals:D |
Well....that ends that I guess.
The Viking Blues have it... VB - 11 RR - 1 Meeting adjourned. :) Thanks for all your input guys. Chuck: Thanks for your offer. I'm pretty sure I have the correct PPG code, though. It turned out to be an offset code. Thanks again to all. Viking Blue it will be. |
Now for resale I think red will sell a car better than any saleman. But as a purist Princess blue wins hands down. I'm sorry did I say Princess Blue? I mean Viking Blue! :)
|
Man the oars! The VB is a great color.....
|
C'mon... be different! Make it RR! (Then again, my opinion could be somewhat biased. :D )
|
Paint it black!
My vote is for RR. |
Gotta go with red!

Saw a beautiful silver example last week, gorgeous! It had ghosted black stripes, very subtle.
As for a red car check this combination out. Not the best shot to show the colour but you get the idea, nice colour coordination with the stripes I thought. PS, no the steering wheel is not on the wrong side! :eek: Paul:MECOOL: |
Thanks for all your input and opinions guys. You guys are a lot of help. I think I have decided on Viking Blue though. I love the look.
That's a nice look up above Paul. However, I would avoid that car like the plague. The distributor is in the wrong place and the valve covers are rectangular. :) |

Are you really sure you have it narrowed down to Viking Blue?
Ok, if your sure, I vote Viking Blue! |
George,
Now that is a nice color--:3DSMILE: What is the name? |
GR,
Jagur - 2001-02 Camival Red PPG Paint. Thank you for the compliment, I just love the color. Bud |
red... the hard core cobra folks may like the blue better.. but I bet you get more looks from the other 99% of the folks out there
|
WE had a rangoon 64 Galaxie 500 xl in high school It had no orange cast at all and was a great color. I think some of these posts are confusing rangoon red with poppy red.
I'm going to paint mine Poppy Red ppg 60449 just to be different. So I vote on rangoon red for yours. http://www.autocolorlibrary.com/scri...gm=aclgate.bbx Curt |
RED

I have a unique perspective. My car was originally painted porsche gaurds red with no stripe. The car looked great in red and alot different than 9 out of 10 other cobras. I absolutely hated that every car you saw was blue with white stripes. I just repainted my car................. Blue with silver stripes. Pick what makes you happy. I cant really decide which color looks better on mine. They both look great.:)

steering wheel on the right, distributor at the rear...'only mad dogs and english men'!**) :JEKYLHYDE **) Paul:MECOOL: |
George's "Carnival Red" is a GREAT color!
|
Why are almost all of them blue or red? I had a red 69 camaro, looked awesome, but I had to leave a sweatshirt sitting on the seat at carshows so I could pick out which red camaro was mine. There is a world of colors out there, don't be afraid to pick one that is not in the most poular three, it will look nice.
