U6=Misty Blue - confirmed. that was my '83. :)
and by the way, whoever owns that SE that Branca posted, that's one hella beautiful car! |
U6, gotcha!! good info to know. it seems that ocean blue is pretty rare. someone has to know the color code...
|
Thanks! Yes it is mine. It is one of the 4 that i own and it only has 73k on it. it is a 1983. The paint code is U6
|

old pix and dirty
|
excellent looking car, wacky!!!! do you still have the car?
|
Gave it to my son who got his license a few months ago but in stock condition. He learned how to drive on a 5-speed. :icon_tup:
|
I used 1/2 gallon to paint the car and still have a Small bit left. This was two coats on the car.
Would have been just barily enough if I had shot the under hood and door jambs. |
do you have any updated pics of the car??
|
I keep forgeting to take them, Not much has happened though, Just Worked on the sagged clear a little is all.
|
well, when you have time to take pics, would you mind posting them? i bought a tender blue 85 S last saturday and i'm really liking the color and was wanting to see more FB's in this color. i've never really liked the color until i owned an FB wih the color. its really grown on me!

color of choice for the discriminating fb owner :bigthumb:

that paint code sheet has been very helpful. my only concern was the listing of L6 which is listed as "royal blue". the brochure for the 85 RX-7 i have states the color as "ocean blue metallic". i wonder if in canada the color was listed as royal blue....

is the pic of the SE there the same 7 as the 7 in the pics with the aftermarket wheels?
|
Hades, why are you selling the car??? looks great with that new paint!!
|
Bought it to sale. I have a 79 and my wife has an 83 LE so one more on insurance is not really something I want to do.
I am tempted to make it a Demo car for my Audio shop. |
well it looks great with the new paint on it. was it originally tender blue? are those seats gray leather?
|
Thanks I am glad I did a good job painting it, I was really worried that I would screw it up somehow.
Interior is Brown leather, but in bad shape. |
it came out really good!! waht made you decide to go with the tender blue? was the car originally white or brown?
|
It was the Blue. So I just kept the factory color. I have to say it is a very striking color and everyone that sees it has had good thing to say about it.
