Hi all,

I am new to the forum to apologise if this isn't in the right section.

I am currently looking into respraying my car and have discovered this colour but I have no idea what the name of it is. Can anyone please enlighten me?

Thanks

Dan

This is a good paint resource I use for inspiration for new orders but it only goes from 1968 so a few years after the end of 365 production:

What is the car you are re-spraying?

Thanks all for the help.

Still searching for the colour. I have registered with the DDK forum - just waiting on activation.

I will be respraying a classic Mini (well actually it'll be sprayed because it's a bare metal shell at the moment).

I have a few months before its any where near ready for paint which is why I am taking my time to pick the right paint scheme. Unfortunately my Photoshop skills do not extend to "painting" the colour onto a classic mini but I reckon it'll look the business!

Cheers

Dan
