    Rare but popular color? Is that an oxymoron? Said to have been used only in 1955, code H, Dupont 2013, and only on the Fairlane.......

    And only in the Refreshments song....

    I'd like to see that car in its finished paint ....

    The song seems to be about a 55 Thunderbird --

    Anyone got info on what Ford models actually had that color in it?

    Funny you should post this today! While I was coming back from Home Depot yesterday for about 200th time I saw a '55 Thunderbird going the opposite way in this color. I knew I had seen it some where before but couldn't remember where. It's nice to know the name of the color as well. I do think I remember seeing it on almost all of the Ford line that year, at least as part of a two tone offering.
