Is this your Vette? Need color code!

This Corvette was in Effingham 2005 and a fellow forum member desperately needs the color code for a project of his son's (a Marine currently serving in Fallajuh, Iraq).

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Definitely not a stock color. I agree, check with the House of Kolors.

There was a C5 here on the forum that looked to be painted that color. Work was done by House of Color. Just can't remember the forum member's name right now.

JD, forget me that easy. Gee.

I know I dont post here much anymore but had a hell of a time when I did. Yes I did sell it to a guy in Montana.
It does look close the the C5 I had.

If he likes the color on my old car is as follows.
All HOK products.
Car was sprayed all white first
Zeinth Gold base
3 coats of Kandy Tangerine
Certian type of HOK hardener, not sure
2 coats of HOK clear

Each car will come out different some depending on gun used, pressure, and distance from the object. (From what I am told)

I hope this helps, if not email me at Indpowr2@netzero.com and I can give you the paint shop that did my car they would be more than happy to help you.
