CAMARO

its a 2000 metalic K040(510G) found it on Holden colour chart on the net with the Panther's code K009.

VT Commodore black maybe?

Al, try going around the panel beaters,paint touchup guys and ask if you can buy/procure the leftover/dreggs from jobs for a couple of bucks for the occasional box of p*ss. Ya might need to leave some empty jars or bottles with them but thats how our club was getting it for a while. They almost always mix a little more than they need just in case. You'll have to explain what you want it for and that you have a decent respirator but you should find one that will help you out.

Thank's all for your in put,doorslammerfan,will be looking into that also,have put a base colour on the body waiting for it to dry will be paint some flat black on the seats and chassis.

put a base coat of Tamiya X-1 gloss black followed by clear coat with Reflex violet powder in it,got the most wicked dark metalic purple,there is only one small thing every time I try to take photo it come out dark blue but ver all I very happy with the out come of it. here she is.had to adjust colour in photoshop.

That colour is amazing.

here is it in sunlight with out be adjusted,it looks metalic blue but its not its a wicked metalic purple,one would have to see it in person,now what to paint the engine and gear box,

Thank's Kane its turned out super,Oh the reflex violet powder comes from The Parts Box,its sold as bling powder,I use tamiya color acrylic X-22,you don't need much powder about a pinch the size of gain of rice or 2,but I used 6 gives more colour and darker,have tryed auto clear colour but it did not mix ended up a blob.u have to thin the clear a little bit more as bling thicken the clear.once it drys and hardens will look to see if it needs more clear,them polish it.

you always come up with the best colours allan, what a sweet shade!

Thank's slowlylearning,that it is,found some soft rubber tyres for camaro,they are lower than the others.

Awesome colour Allan. yeah sometimes the camera wont pick up the red in purple. happened in some of my cuda pics as well.

thanks Doorslammerfan,its a great colour,there is red and blue flake in it but the camera only see's the blue.

Whats this garbage about "the camera never lies" Whoever said that is a liar.
The colour looks awesome Allan, would be great to see it in the flesh!

I agree - go for it!

Nice color, the same happens when you use HOK Pavo Purple, it's a deep metal flake purple, but yet it looks blue on camera, nice start BTW.....

Great colour Allan!

Ya shoey the camera does lie took photos of a purple flip front F100 pickup and purple torana a fair day yesturday both turn dark blue some red one's have orange patchs were the sunlight was on them thanks guy's wish you could see colour in the flesh its unreal.

Colour looks fantastic Allan........BTW i was thinking maybe go for white trim with inserts in the same colour as the body.

putting the chassis together as the weather has warm up to do gluing lost top of engine but found part from 67 corvette that fits will have side draft webbers on it,waitng for paint on engine to dry, better get back to it.

Your Camaro looks really nice Allan, great colour choice!

Thank's Clutch,very happy with colour small problem with engine parts lost a pair of the small tubes,so now have to look for some thing else.

can not get true colour photo of this one,have taken 24 photos some outside some inside but all came out dark blue this one has been changed in photoshop but still not 100%.

I like the colour Allan,she's got a nice finish as well,is the clear out of a rattle can?

Geoff,I used tamiya clear X-22,the violet powder came from the parts box its sold as bling powder,I tryed it in auto clear once and end up with a white blob it did not mix,don't know why.

this one been fun and games ,had to find diff for it and parts for engine,only to find front end missing also but just found one ,put it the freeze to unstick it,found new set of tyres which will lower it down more, will get there in the end with it. you have to laugh about it.
