(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Man that scotty can shoot some paint can't he? I heard somewhere that the original paint used for Marathon Blue and silver had fading/quality issues, so I always thought Marathon Blue was pretty light based on the few cars I saw. Pretty much seemed silver to me. This looks so much brighter and bluer. Have to say I voted purple, but good call shoe. That's the right color.

Take care getting it home!

Elsa is the Ice Queen on the hit movie Frozen. Might be a new name - Betsy got kinda old. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)
I vote for Elsa!

This will be a super cool car, Shoe. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Before seeing this pic, I was convinced I wouldn't be returning my car to it's original Marathon Blue Metallic. But holy smokes that looks great! How come they never look this good when I google Marathon Blue Metalic 914's.

LOOKS GREAT!!!

No. It's collecting dust. He's been too busy working on Miatas (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

I keep pulling up this thread hoping to see great pics of the ice queen put back together and on the road. This is my car's original color so I'm living vicariously through your posts for now, until I reach the paint and body phase.

I have to start working on it now, it is in the build off challenge. Probably take a while just to get the dust off of it.
