Any idea of the red on this wagon?

[John]

The picture is named "twilight red EK"

Not sure it's an original EK red is it? Anyone know the code if it is?

thanks

Or the "twilight" part could just be refering to the show. I think there is a Twilight something or other show up in QLD.

Mitsubishi and Toyota have both had paint named Twilight Red, but I've never heard of it for FKs.

The closest FB/EK colour that I know of would be maybe Mandan Red?

Tiiiiimmmmmmm.

looks a lot like sting red, witch is a commodore colour(code/ f 143 ,grp3.

Twilight is reference to the 'Twilight Show' @ Rocklea show grounds. I used to run the car entry gate there. That show is not around anymore but remember seeing that wagon. The red does not look factory.

The car (NOG-544) is originally NOT red. From memory it was Cameo Beige so is just some late model colour. As Sunnymick has said there are only two colours for EK that are close - Apache Red and Grenadier Red. Always had a Snowcrest White Roof.

I've decided the wagon will be a bit 80's modded. You know, triples, alloy and chrome on the grey,hidden wiring, chrome widies, 2 inch system etc. I'm going back to my 20's !!!!!!
So it probably wont be original paint codes. I really really like that red on that wagon. Time to go paint hunting

You gotta be careful with colours seen in photo's. My car looks a different colour every time depending on the camera used.

The colours do look a bit enhanced in that photo

Yeah, they've definitely 'upped' the red.

I really like the Flamenco Red that the VB commode-doors came in.

Cool...80's modded. Bum up in the air, tramp rods, hot-dog.

Hey, can you still get hot-dogs? Nothing like the sound of a grey with a hot-dog

and a hot red with two 2 1/2" hot-dogs sounds great too!
