    I saw this car at Kzoo Nats and the Mrs REALLY liked the color. I went back a few times but never saw the owner of the car to ask about it.

    I would call it Dove Gray, but knowing there are hundreds of versions of dove grey, I was hoping the owner is on the HAMB, or someone knows the owner of the car, and can get me a paint code or at least a name.

    Thanks for the help.

    Check your RLM codes for ww2 german fighters..I have been noticing Audi and VW have been using a lot of colors that were part of the ww2 luftwaffe color/camo scheme.

    I'm not joking..it really does look like the colors used for the undersides of 262's and 109's.

    this roadster has a Motor City Flathead in it (or at least their heads) if that helps verify the car.

    I like the look of the grey, wire wheels and flathead. A nice traditional ride even after overlooking the radial tires. Wanna bet someone cuts it down because of the tires before this thread is over?:(

    from so . cal.

    go to the paint store and pick out a shade of grey that YOU like, buy a pint and do a spray-out on a sheet metal panel. If it's to dark/light , adjust the tint one way or the other to get what you like. At least your not doing a clone of someone elses' color. It's your car , make it all yours . good luck .
