Had a wonderful day at Mike's Afordable for the annual car meet and greet. It was a beautiful day and here is a picture of the cars there by mid morning.

I was most interested to find some cars with the Copra and Chicle Drab combination, as I always thought it would be my favorite. Now that I have a 31 Town Sedan to add to my 30 Standard Roadster, it is time to pick the colors. There were two examples of this combination that looked really good to me.

Both looked really good and I would pick them for my car. Amazing to me that these pictures did not come out like they really looked. There was a little greenish color in the body of both cars, and in my camera version is looks all brown. I have always been distressed with some of the pictures I have seen that show this way. Now I will ignore pictures and trust what the car will look like.

One question, I have never seen a car painted like this Town Sedan. Isn't the entire top supposed to be the darker color, not just hilited the way this one is? I much prefer it filled in like the coupe.
