What year are you looking for?

Late 60's - early 70's comes up with the most yellow types

Texas Yellow is L10B ?

Can't find an L10H

I just had a look thru the NB sales booklets I have from Germany and the UK and of our early hardtop NB's and in those there is a colour very close which they call lemon yellow(T8)

Richards is the normal yellow(if there is such a thing).
The convert is a paler or as I call it a creamish yellow. They are 2 differant colours, Dont know the proper name of the new one.

Dave the new convert colour is Mellow Yellow...it's a lot paler than the NB hard top..

I'd type some stuff to go with the link above but for some reason it didn't work

Go to the last link I posted and it has all the new colours for both

There lots of other cool stuff on the US site as well 🙂

None of the above Dan.

You know I change my mind more times than I change my undies.

But that is the bottom colour this week,
Top will be kept as a suprise.
Might have it finished for the show, even though it is not being done as a show bus, far from it.

I'm loosing track here.....so you have a 57 cabriolet?

...or wanting to paint the top a different colour..

I think we're going for the first one aren't we?

There's a Ghia site which has a fantastic range of canvas colours and bottom colour combo's

Is this what you're after?

Here's the Ghia site.....

....well it's nice to looks and play with ideas 🙂

lol......cool...a KOMBI!!🙂

I was completely off track:jesus

p.s. now I've gathered my thought for a couple of sec's...

White always looks good...and going lighter than the bottom works best

Mellow Yellow is already pale, so...?
