Default Show me your colors!!
I am new to Model A's. And am excited about it.

As I have learned, 28-31 years had different color options.

So, I'm asking if you wouldn't mind posting a great picture of your A in good lighting and listing the stock colors they are.

Color chips I have seen, but they don't compare to seeing them on an A.

It sure would help, not only me, but other new A owners. I and I'm sure others will want to make the right choice when it comes time to paint!

Thanks,

Sean

I'm ready! "Show me your Colors"!!!!!

(p.s. there is a fine collection of A's at the National Tour hint, hint)

Yes, I have seen that one, very nice.


Sadly, it isn't available for the 28-29 models.

Wouldn't happen to have a link like that for those years?

Rose Beige and Seal Brown with orange pinstripe, INCORRECT for '28. Someday I'll repaint using Arabian Sand. Someday.

Here is my 1930 Standard Phaeton in Kewanee Green, with Elkpoint Green belting and sill molding and finished off Apple Green double pinstripe. All production colors for the year and model. My wife says the colors match her green eyes!

Do you have a paint code or formula for your Lombard Blue? I belong to the KC Model A club.
