I'm interested in buying any light blue diecast turbo regal you'd be willing to sell. Please send me an email to the address below with what you have and how much....pictures would be nice also.
 
Sorry to say Joe, but there aren't many blue Regal T diecast cars to choose from. I can think of a few off of the top of my head, maybe some other members can chime in.

> 1:18 GMP Regal T in medium/dark blue (not the factory dark blue color)
> 1:18 GMP Regal T in chrome blue (companion car to the one above)
> 1:87 Herpa/Busch Grand National in medium blue (just like the Monogram "mini-exact") These were made for HO train layouts
> 1:64 Revell Grand National in dark blue (this car "stretches" into a DJ turntable) I forget what it's called, I'll have to check when I get home.
> 1:64 JL Thunderjets in two-tone blue in regular and "White Lightning"

I think your best bet is to locate one of the better detailed 1:64 GN's and create your own using the correct color paint to match your light blue car.
The new JL GN/Regal and the Racing Champs/Ertl versions are the best candidates if you prefer that scale or find one of the new Motormax 1:24 "American Graffiti" cars that are currently available.

Best of luck.

p.s.
I recall from a long time ago at Bowling Green somebody had a full set of 1:64 GN's painted in every color available for '87. 12 cars in all, it was pretty impressive to say the least.
 
Joe! I told you brother, get me a can of your paint and Ill make you a 1/24th MotorMax or Dub City car!!!!!!!!!!!:biggrin:
 
Joe, I have some of the light blue paint left from the TFT car I painted. Auto paint is pretty thick though but I could thin it out and spray a small car with my airbrush I would think then do the same with some clear. What size car are you wanting? 1/18, 1/24 etc. Let me know and we may give it a try for yah. Daniel Ray

I bought a 1/18th to paint...I'd like all different sizes done to match.
What do you have?

I have a decent amount of the light blue left over and want to paint this 1/18 I just bought. Do you have a sprayer?
 
I have a very light blue color on my car and from what I've seen there have been no cars made in this color so I'll have to paint one myself.
 
Joe I don't have a car to use for it myself but if you want to take one apart and send it to me I would be glad to shoot it up for you. The blue I have is the light blue , correct code for 87 turbo t, I can't remember the paint code right off the top of my head. Look in your trunk on the code sheet and get your paint code off it for your car. I will see if its still on the can at my shop. I do auto painting for a living so yeah, I have a sprayer or 2 ;) ,but I also do custom airbrushing on bikes and such. Here is a pic of the car and a bike I redid after he dropped it.
