Yes I looked at that Ford gold and I like it, but it's way too modern looking. if I was doing a resto mod or something I think it would be a great choice.

I'm trying to stay on the fringes of original. the real Tiger gold was a blah brownish gold in my opinion, so I'm trying to upgrade it without going too far. kind of like radial tires, an acceptable upgrade.

We talked about taking a gallon of paint and tweaking on it until it was right, the problem with that is matching it if you ever needed to would be a real PITA. I'd rather avoid that if possible if I could find an existing mix that works.

I like that much better than the original color, and it's not so far off that it jumps at you.
