Hi Jon, its Polar white mate, its a bit of an off white as opposed to a stark white that a lot of Goss's are painted in.

Hi Jon
The names are
Apollo Blue
Polar White code 3 No.08631
Emerald Fire Green code: P No.15878
Graeme obtained the code by doing a google search, I'm not sure about the "Blue" code as mine is Green.
Cheers
Chris

why do the blue ones seem to look like a brighter white? is it just a trick of the eye when comparing green and white and blue and white?
My green one looks more off white

Hi Andrew
Bloody good question. I guess it will come down to the quality of paint and painter. We had my car out in the sun for the first time yesterday and both the white and green change in shade in a major way. Both Dean, (the painter), and I were surprised by the change. The white looks almost ultra white from some angles and creamy from others. I have pics if you guys are interested.
Bottom line... It wall comes down the the correct tint, quality of paint, body work and painter.
Merry Christmas to all and families.

Hi Graeme, Yeh what you said your totally right, in the shade its a bit creamy, but it the bright sun it glows, but Chris has given the paint codes out but this is my info from the old site.
Green - Emerald Fire
- Dulon Code
- 15878
White - Polar White
- Dulon Code
- 08681
Blue - (no record)
My (white) numbers are different to Chris's would that matter? (or does anyone care, lol) unless i could of made a typo when I recored it.
I would like to know does anyone have any different paint codes? but bottom line is there was only the green and blue JGS.
Cheers Phill.

Re: Polar White
Ford has about half a dozen polar whites, make sure you get the right code. I used to work at Dulux in their Automotive section and I remember discovering this anomalie? Is that how you spell it? I can't remember the right code nowadays but do your homework first before picking your paint.

Hi Guys
AS Chris said earlier I did a google search and found the colour codes on a GT Falcon web site. The colours look right to me now the car is painted.
I have tried to post pics here with Noooooo success. There are early painted pics of the car under members cars on the aussie coupes web site. If we can get them on this site happy to provide them. It came out of the garage for the 1st time in 6 years under it's own steam last Sunday.... Very exciting! I took some pics and my son recorded it running on his phone. Sounds very angry.
Cheers
