Het Karsten, My first Van I wanted it painted Winfield Blue Blue, But seeing as I couldn't get a reply from Wills&Co on a paint code, I had a mate find me a blue that was almost it. We painted it in French Blue and it looked awesome especially with the black scallops that I was still painting on as we drove to armidale for the nats back in '95, I think.
Mate Blue is Blue and it doesn't have to be Strata or Wedgewood as long as your happy with the out come thats all that matters. I personally think it looks fantastic and now I'll have to chase up those scuff plate trims for ya.
Cheers Theo Z....................
