What Colour is this...?

louised, 2 March, 2009 at 14:20 Posted on Planning 0 11

Hi,

My H2B has decided that he wants to drive himself to the wedding in this hired mustang. I thought it would be a nice idea to colour co-ordinate the wedding to the car because it his special thing for the day. however Im not 100% sure what shade of blue you would class this as. any idea?

Thanks

    Thanks, i think you've hit the nail on the head there (im rubbish at anything arty so was worried i would get it wrong)

    Its a gorgeous car and it works out at half the price of a wedding car as he wants to drive it himself. ?

    Looks more like Royal Blue than Cobalt to me. Cobalt seems a bit dark.

    Royal blue

    Cobalt blue

    A few different options. These are Swarovski crystals but I could send you a sample and you could take that to the dress shop to match up. Might be easier than guessing as each manufacture calls colours different names and the more dresses you see the more confused you'll get so a sample in something would keep you on the right track.

    I'd say Dark Sapphire was too dark but thought I'd include it anyway.

    Ok so now Im a bit more confused. Its so annoying because everyone calls the same colour something different. I think ill just go see the car with some of the colour charts you gets from B&Q decide what colour it is on the chart and then match everything else to that.

    Thanks for all your help

    Not sure this helps or not, but this is the colour chart for mustangs:

    1964 models: http://www.svs.com/zim/mustang/images/1964-ford-ppg.jpg Best match Guardsman Blue

    1967 models: http://www.svs.com/zim/mustang/images/1967-ford-ppg.jpg Best match Acapulco or Clearwater Aqua

    1968 models: http://www.svs.com/zim/mustang/images/1968-ford-ppg.jpg Best match Acapulco or Brittany

    The other years don't seem to have had such a good match, and of all of them It looks like 1964 Guardsman Blue is the closest, but I'm not sure!!

    (Sorry, can you tell I like cars???)

    I agree with you that the 1964 Guardsman blue is the best match. Yay now i can search for other wedding things in that colour.
