Does anyone have nice color pics of either a Tudor or Coupe from 1928 in Niagra Blue Light on the lower body and Duchess Blue on the belt / reveals ?

This is an "official" color combo according to the Paint & Finish Guide, and one that I am strongly considering for my Special Coupe.

Would like to see it on a car though...

Thanks !

Frank, in 1928 there are several combinations for tudors using Niagra Blue light and dark with Dutchess Blue. My '28 sport coupe is the light version with Dutchess. If no tudor photo posts I'll send you a few photos of the sc. Chelsea Blue is used w/Bonnie Gray in early '29 only.

Steve - I'd like to see what you have in the way of pics...

( Looks like I goofed when I made the original post ( now corrected )... the color combo I'm looking for is Niagra Blue w/ Duchess Blue belt & reveals.... and I even had the damned Paint & Finish Guide open to the combo chart when I made the original post !!!

Thanks,

Frank

Not sure... is that original factory paint on the lower body ?

The wheels have been repainted for sure, and probably the belt moulding too, as the light blue is quite a bit lighter than anything in the '28-'31 chip-chart...

?

Frank,

Put up the MAFCA web site and on the left scroll down to "Fun Steff"; point curser at Photo Gallery then click on 28 Vehicles; when that window comes up click on closed cars, then click on coupes. The second listing is a Sport Coupe that is Niagara Blue Light with Duchess Blue Belt and Frebch Gray Stripe.
