Andy Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Hoping someone, somewhere might know who owns this Monte. I really love the color and I'm ready to paint mine. Would love to know what color it is exactly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dtret Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I don’t think it’s ascot blue I believe that’s more like the girls shirt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Peters Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 If it is a 70, it could be Astro Blue but with the shadows it is hard to tell. It is also very possible it is not an original color.

MCfan Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Hmmmm ... looks familiar. IF it has a stock paint code and vinyl top, it could be a '70 in Astro Blue (25) with a dark blue vinyl top (like mine) or a '71 in Mulsanne Blue (26) with a blue vinyl top. No blue vinyl tops in '72. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted December 14, 2020 Author Share Posted December 14, 2020 Thanks for the input. I have trolled on here before joining. I didn't think it was a stock color either. I've seen all the paints for out gen 1's, and I don't believe it is any of them. I've had the pic stored in my past 3 phones so I don't remember where I got it from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cny first gen 71 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 That is a very nice blue for sure. Any good auto body paint store can mix almost any color you want. I took a plastic bowl in and said this is the color I want, they came very close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
