Limestone or Ivory/Chamonix/Davos White


I need to 'look' at one to make sure its the colour i want before I paint my SIIA LWB Ute.

Steve

Alternatively, can someone confirm this is Limestone?



Cheers

Steve

Yep, that's Limestone. I have the same colour on the inside of my blue 2a.

Nice truck, though. The grille badge is mounted too low, in the way of the bonnet catch lever, but I'm just nit-picking now. Six cylinder, too.

Dan.
69 2a 88" pet4, 74 3 109" pet4, 68 2b FC pet6.

That is a great looking truck!

I love the look of Limestone on a LWB. I think it looks odd on Shorties though...

I don't know what you are waiting for Steve. Ain't no better colour than Limestone in my opinion!

Is yours a trayback or a tub?

Mine is a LWB Tray back. I love the colour. Just wanted to confirm it was limestone so I got what I hoped for

My uncle had a SIII LWB tray back in that colour and still has his SWB hardtop. Best colour by far i think.


I'll order the paint this week. Thanks forthe help.

I also just had the design of the tray done and have sent a quote request off for the steel won't be long before I get it on the road.

This is my series 3 roof which is painted in limestone code LRC.007
hope it helps.

I agree, I think long wheelbases look odd in dark green too.

I think it is a great looking LR. I had three Limestone 2As, two hardtops and a wagon. Would like a tray back one now.

You are right Jeff - LWBs do look strange in Deep Bronze Green.

That said, I have seen a station wagon freshly painted in DBG and while it looked out of place at first glance... jeez... it really started to grow on me!

It would probably look crappola once the paint fades though.

I want it! I want it!

It's a long time since I have seen a ute cab roof in that sort of pristine, dentless condition!

Very confused here now - I thought that colour was always called "sandstone" and the off-white of the hard tops and occasionally the wheel rims "limestone" (Not the very early S2/S2a hardtops - they had "Arctic white", but the later S2a's around the time of the key start/ dual wipers etc)
