Dave said the new off white paint is just right. He sent me some photos, and I have to agree with him.

Off white ,meaning not quite white. I realize there is alot of yellow mixed in it. So, it could be called a light yellow, or an off white , that was mixed down with yellow.

the paint does look good, but looking at the car like this, i see very little resemblance to Dave Rhoads car. there are some essential trademarks missing.

such as: wheels, stance, perfection...  Wink

the dash is a good reassurance that it is indeed 'that' car. otherwise this could be 'any' nicely painted car IMHO. if you see what i mean.
