    Favorite Sandman Paint Colours

    Gday.

    Tought I'd start something new....

    What is everyones favourite Sandman colour, and WHY?

    Me personally... it would be the Turqoise 'coz it blends with the sea. Or possibly Black - ever since I'v seen the allycat.

    Cheers

    hi Gas on

    Mine is yellow (but i'm a bit bios).Love those bright 70's colours. Hz sandmans Valencia Orange is an orsome colour.And your right the yellow can attract bees and other insects sometimes.I've only had this happen once,and it was covered. So i guess their voteing with their feet.

    Even though my HZ factory colour is Carribean Turquiose, it still hasn't grown on me. :(
    Would prefer a Blue.

    My HJ is Deauville Blue and i don't mind that colour at all.
    BO6 = Rarer then a Sandman

    Have to break it down into models....

    HQ
    Barbados Green

    HJ
    Tuxedo

    HX
    Papaya

    HZ
    Valencia Orange, Jasmine Yellow and Caribbean Turquoise and Aztec Silver (a few too many, one of each would be good)

    Ok, if I had to choose one discounting Valencia orange as I have one of them than I think a Papaya HX would be a good addition.

    When I went looking for my Sandman I really wanted a lime green (mint julip/Jamaica Lime etc.) or mandarin red.

    I ended up with a mandarin red HX, The car had a black interior (but late model seats and custom door trims) instead of replacing these with original black items I decided to change the interior colour, I removed a complete buckskin interior from a HZ and fitted it because I really like the combo, while buckskin wasn't available in HX commercials it is my preference, I have kept all the black parts (console, windlacing, kick panels etc.) but can't see me changing it back.

    Fav colour

    Rodney and I prefer Jasmine Yellow which was the colour of our original Sandman we sold in 86, our current Van will be repainted Jasmine, and have the blackouts and correct Decals, and brown interior as the Sandman we just bought's ID says that is what it should have been. I also love the bright green, and bye the way did anybody own the green Sandman used in last Season's underbelly? it was in too good a conditon to be plucked off the street randomly.
