Thank you everyone for the kind words.
And yes it is Code KK
Tripoli Turquoise
I have always loved this color and wanted something that wasn't so mainstream.

Ok , so pushed the car out side and cleaned the garage again and added new paper to the floor . Re-masked the car again as the time had finally come for some more color to be applied .

While the paint was curing I changed my attention to getting the wheels restored .
After blasting the original wheels were epoxy primed, then the rear inside and center of the wheels were painted Black. Then the front sides painted body color .
