That yours?

Maybe! I have just done so many silver/grays I see them in my sleep. :lol:

Wayne's is some shade of yellow/sand if I remember correctly?

Vadim, I just looked through but I haven't seen any light blue-gray or am I missing it?:

I love my truck but still have a soft spot for Rovers and their amazing colors...

Like a Jeep Sand color :shock:

with white/red interior?

THAT'S WILD!!

Tom, I like the gun metal blue idea :D

Thanks Pierre,

I think I'm just on a crazy colour bender. And haven't done a green or orange yet. Any orange/green favourites? Something other than Jagermeister so I don't use another of Guido's used colours? That was a spectacular looking truck Guido.

Guido, are you using C1 top fabric? I had to switch to 3 or 4 side straps since the rear or middle would sag depending on where the D ring was sewn in. That was with C1 Sonnen fabric.

But that's only when it's HOT outside and it stretches a bit.

I think I'm going with RAL 2005.
