Another shot looks like the fender was stripped and repainted. Looks like the car was painted fly yellow after that. Should it go back to Rosso Corsa or change up to Azzuro Metalic? Image Unavailable, Please Login
It is temporarily my car. In all honesty I am kind of bored with red and I think the blue is just so good on that car. On the other hand I would look at my silver over red car against the blue car and not know how to part with either. I am not insulting red cars and think they look great just when I see a non-red example I tend to examine them closer.
Weren't 308's during that time period primer-ed in yellow to give the following top coats a deeper/richer luster?
Yes, they were and it can be seen in the first pic. The second (outter) ring of yellow is paint. The second pic is missing the yellow primer. The paint on this car unsalvagable. It had started crazing and they painted over it and with what looks like a crappy c4 red.
My 77 surely was...steel, then a pale creamy pus yellow primer, then Blue Dino Met. I looked at the whorl above and was confused...
I can sympathize. My car is due for paint next (the end of the 'rolling restoration'). It's red and always has been but I'm thinking I will change it to another period color when it comes to paint. The blues are indeed wonderful but part of me deep down is drawn to verde germoglio. I'm sure I am in a minority of one with that choice though and it would halve the cars value I'm sure heheheheheheh.
Yup... I think is me and me only that likes it. They made only one GTB in that colour I believe. Maybe two GT4s. It was more popular on 246 Dinos I think.
The push for Azzurro Metallic has been strong from my piers. Next consideration is do I bump the power in the engine. Yeah I better.
