    Here is my roadster. I'm still working on it. I'm sure you are looking for something a little more shiney though. I hope it helps.

    Thanks, I have been working on it for about a year now. I have all the build pics. It has really put a dent in the wallet. Model A's are much cheaper come to find out. One day I'll sit done and write the thread. I would like to be able to write a good one with personality. I don't want it to be just another 32 build thread. Thanks again for the compliments.
     

  5. Love your roadster and your avatar ain't bad either.

    I tried to email you the pics but didn't have much luck so I am posting them in the thread.

    The car is still in pieces. But I think these are the ones closest to the paint itself. I hope these help. Good luck on your Car. Mike

  14. The color on my roadster is a 2003 Nisson under hood satin. I had it converted to a single stage. It was a close match to a Dupont spector fleet color S136 if I remember right.

    Here's mine, it's Jag BRG. I'm thinking of a wheel and tire change. I really like the wheel / tire combo in post 13
