I have a friend that does paint work and is going to repaint my white car. I'm looking for pics of other white cars. I'm trying to decide if I want to paint the bumpers etc. Thanks.

white t

im not sure what the paint code is off the top of my head but the color is called olympic white.and...in those pictures,it wasnt even wet sanded or buffed out yet.i will be getting her back soon.i think im gonna put the entire body back together exactly the way its gonna look and then the drivetrain build starts.ive been collecting stuff like a mad man.i have so much stuff for this car and that list grows almost daily.then in early spring the actual heart transplant will take place. na - tttturbo transplant.this car will be SICK when im done with it.shes going to the car shows and the dragstrip,all in 2011.cant wait.;)
 
that must be it.the body shop manager is a wicked good friend of mine.i told her i wanted white.shes like what white do you want?iwas like what?i want white.white is white,right?answer=NO.so i said ok,you pick the white.so she told me it's olympic white.gm code 50 must be it.shes almost more excited about the car than me.and...shes been a long time friend with bennefits.lol.sooooo,needless to say,im getting a smoking deal.no pun intendeD,LOL:D
 
This is my 1986 T-type that i just had painted. Car had to be taken down to the metal and brought back up. Turned out awesome. It is Olympic white. Decided not to paint bumpers or put a spoiler on it.

that car looks awsome.nice job.im still up in the air if im gonna run the wheel well trim or not.:confused:think im gonna try no wheel well and no door edge guards.we'll see.:rolleyes:
 
dam, few TR's look better then white does. doesnt it need a touch of blue to look bright white?
 
Brett, you are right about the blue to make a bright white. The arctic white has a touch more blue than the olympic, but both are very similiar. BTW i am the one that pm'd you about the holeshots you had on the blue car. My car is in need of some nice wheels, just not sure which ones to go with.
 
Here's a shot of Gary Wells low milage, white 87 Limited, next to my 87 GN.

Looks great! What size rear tire???

I have to paint my car and I am now considering this color for an option. I would love to see it side by side with the factory white.
 
Just a note for you guys wanting to go white, If you want the brightest, purest white I have ever seen order you a gallon of white base from house of kolor. I did a 79 z-28 for a customer a few years ago and it will knock your eyes out . It makes every other white look dirty ! Daniel Ray
