Olympic Blue


Adriatic:



Steve, my first one was Adriatic Blue and I LOVED it.. thats a great choice! My second was tangerine orange..so this time Im doing a green hue. Just for variety's sake. I say figure out a blue color thats not already in the metroplex... So you're a little unique during a get together.

It's partly your fault. I was going to paint it Gemini Blue, since I was born in June, but a year ago at the Phoenix Club event, I saw a Gemini Blue car side by side with an Alaska Blue car. I was sold on the Alaska Blue darker color. I then went to Rennsport and saw your car. Done deal after that.

Ancona, because I owned and loved the color on a 20,000 original mile 76
Olympic, because I met several girlfriends driving olympic blue cars
Alaska, because one of my best friends has had one for years and loves it
Adriatic, because this same best friend has a spectacular six that he has been restoring for years but has not finished
Gemini because my 71 m471 is that color
Marathon because I fondly remember the 23,000 original mile 73 2.0 I owned and loved for six years
Lagoon Blue because of the pseudo "son" I have who visits me every weekend in a spectacular looking 75 1.8

Great choice then! It’s much more stellar in person than in Picts. The right selection of chrome and black sets it off too. If I were to consider one thing it would be adding back the sail trim and bits. Just fine without it, but it kind of puts it all in there on the chrome side. Good luck with the reassembly!
