    Would like to see what Vanilla Shake paint looks like. Thinking of painting my coupe this color but would like to see some examples.

    I did a 32 Ford HR&HP convertible in Chrysler Cool Vanilla with black top and interior. I really liked it but got several negative comments on it that it wasn't a hotrod color. Hell, it wasn't a hotrod. Turned out to be a little goldchainer looking for me, I sent it to Japan.

    Our car (The one in the avatar over there) is painted Chrysler "Cool Vanilla". It looks mostly white in photographs though.

    You don't get the full effect until you park it next to a real white car, then you can really see the cream in it.

  10. I think he's talking about the Hot Rod Flatz color.

    I know you've seen pics of my ranchero, but here it is for posterity's sake. Mine is the Hot Rod Flatz Vanilla Shake. I love it. It has almost a pearl look to it in the right light.
     
  12. Pic?

    *I think we talked about this before lOl

    Looks like Ford's Wimbledon white, to me.

    Painted a 32 sedan the Ford version of Vanilla back in the early 80s. T-Time you are right it is very close.

    The late 40's early to late 50's Chevy color is called "Bombay Ivory".

    Ford's mid-Fifties similar color was Colonial White.

    take a look at the 2008 Ford Edge color code PH, it is a little darker than the chrysler.
     
  19. I'm pretty sure that the OP was asking to see examples of a flat cream color on model A body.
    Paint chips don't really tell you jack-jubilee.

    Well, maybe that is what he meant, but it ain't what he said. ;)
