  15. I would like to see more pics of this one. I’ve kind of developed a fascination with MOON discs lately.

    These colors are close to my 1983 C-10, Dark blue.I bet if shot with a black base it would be close.

    Blues4U what color is your coupe? Saw a 32 roadster at the Ty-Rods show that was painted 1939 Ford Jefferson Blue and your coupe looks very similar, a slightly lighter color than Washington Blue.

    I can't tell you for sure, I don't have paint codes, it was painted when I got it. It is slightly lighter than Washington blue, the original color. There are a couple of spots where the original paint is visible, and it is a little darker. I do really like this lighter shade.

    Mine. Look changes with different light sources as mentioned in the OP. Looks good in all light except with a flash: nasty baby blue... rpu from above.jpg

    Does the Martin Roadster, 2018 AMBR winner count? It's not Washington Blue, but close enough for this thread? Let's include it anyway:

    That's not cool. Not even the right shade. But that's a customer of mine, I've made a LOT of money off those trucks. I love 'em.

    Things are too slow around here, time to update this thread (and clear out that last post). This came in my facebook feed the other day.
