Does anyone have a original Holden colour chart?
The one that came with the sales brochure.
And does it show Belmont Green with an Artic Beige flash
as a choice?
I'm still looking but i'm sure mine wasn't Collen Green
The one in my garage is that colour and it sure don't look the same!
Maybe it's because the paints faded.

I'm trying to work out the colour of my early FB which I remember was plated Dec 1959
I'm sure of that because I remember the local dealer we brought the car from told me that.
I had the Vin plate checked for some other reason.
As the FB was released in Jan 1960 I figure that would be correct as they would have had to have had a stockpile for the release date?

Re: Paint Colours
Thanks Tim
Looks like I'm on the right track then
My first FB was delivered to "W H Lober" at Miranda
I know my current FB was delivered in 1961 but I kinda want to restore
it like the one I had before.
I'm looking through my old negs to see if I have any in colour
But they would have been taken with old 110 or 126 flim
so I don't know if I can even get them developed today?
