Yes it would be great to show them off together. I was wondering where that 85 NHP went here in California. You are about 1.5 hours North of me. Have you done much to the 85 yet?

Really cool car to start with. Was this the one that was a lighter blue when in-service w/NVHP?

To my knowledge with the evidence I have found, yes this car was a lighter blue. The paint code on the door sticker is "3R"--- Medium Shadow Blue Metallic. Areas where the paint is chipping off shows this blue. I have found no evidence of a darker blue. In the pics below you will see the circular cutout from the left rear fender where the hole saw cut the hole for the whip antenna. I found this piece, and the backing piece for the antenna mount, when I was snooping around the rear inner fender areas. Some of the other pics are areas where the paint is chipping off. You can also see the inside of the trunk, the door jambs, engine compartment, etc. being a lighter blue.
