Peachy. -At first I thought it was white with yellow lights in your garage. I want to see apicture of it in the sunlight, but it looks good.

I kinda like it! But then, I own a Coffee-colored Herald....

 

[BOXoROCKS]

....it's PRIMER.....just boxed some primers together.....

Come on Box, admit it, just trying to get in touch with your feminine side.
Go with a cashmere interior.

If you rad doesn't need recored or boiled out, you might want to cover it to avoid any more unnecessary paint on the fins.

To bad you don't live in Georgia, you could have earned some money with your "peachy clean" car!

When I was selecting the color for my TR3, someone told me that the previous year a couple had shown up at the Dixon car show with a peach TR3 dressed in peach jumpers.

Do you need the address of their tailor?

 

[BOXoROCKS]

yea, i should get some paper on the rad, it blows off though, and what doesn't melts with thinner.

...cashmere int??? that would look fab, and people would love it.
This is just a driver, had it for 19 yrs and thought I'd clean it up a bit.

Never again any show stuff for me.

At TRA in 1991, I met a fellow with a beige smallmouth TR3 named Tom. He had just finished the restoration of a very nice TR3A for his daughter who had just turned the legal age to drive in PA or Ohio.

He had painted the TR3A "Mary Kay pink" !!!!!!!!!

I saw it again in 2006. She still drives it and it's still the same color.

Box, what color will it be when you're done cleaning it up... or are you waiting to see what your mixture will produce?

 

[Popeye]

Looks peachy to me... ha, ha, groan.

Are you doing the painting yourself? What kind of paint is being used? If you are doing it, what is your setup?

Inquisitive minds want to know... I plan to attempt to paint my car.

thanks,
