My Thames Blue is quite different from that colour. I got a matchpot of paint from ICI using the original colour code. Maybe 2 different suppliers? Much darker and more grey in it.

I don't have any good close-up colour pics and the car is away in the garage and in need of a good T-Cut.[frame]Image[/frame]
