  8. Might as well throw this one in the pile. Just finished the 59AB install & made the first run around the block. Got two miles on it. Might just be a keeper. OH the paint came from Car Quest. Washington Blue of course,single stage urethane.

    May only a little lighter but often mistook for Washington blue is 89' Mercedes Benz "surf blue",another great color if your looking for something just a touch lighter.

    I know its not a hotrod... but its Blue. Its supposed to be Dearborn Blue ,Its really comparable to Washington Blue. It looks almost Black in lower light conditions P1030034 (Custom).JPG P1030099 (Custom).JPG

    Real Washington Blue is as mentioned a color changer depending on light.
