restoman Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Any one know of a decent match for 1970 Dodge Q3 Light Turquoise?Monitor colours on various websites seem to be way off...Thanks.
restoman Posted February 19, 2017 Author Posted February 19, 2017 I've got several paint book pages and they all show pretty similar shades.The problem is trying to match something to the colour online. Nothing in the local hobby shop and he is hesitant to order something in if I won't guarantee it what I'm looking for.
espo Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 MCW might be the best bet on accuracy. A little more expensive but it will be right. Or see if anyone carries Duplicolor paints.
Can-Con Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Scale Finishes has it listed. I have used a few of thier paints and they work well. Thier "outside USA" distributor is my local hobby shop here in Fredericton and Scott's a good guy to deal with too.
GeeBee Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 MCW might be the best bet on accuracy. A little more expensive but it will be right. Or see if anyone carries Duplicolor paints. there not the cheapest paints I've used, but there certainty the best, I used them for the Chrysler Im building at the moment, he's sure to have it listed
gtx6970 Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Mind if I ask , what it is your planning to paint.To the best of my knowledge the only thing Q3 was avail on was C bodies in 1970.
restoman Posted February 20, 2017 Author Posted February 20, 2017 '70 Bee. The other turquoise looks too dark on my monitor... How would I find out if Q3 was available on B bods?
gtx6970 Posted February 20, 2017 Posted February 20, 2017 (edited) '70 Bee. The other turquoise looks too dark on my monitor... How would I find out if Q3 was available on B bods? I stand corrected. Looks like it MIGHT have been avail on 1970 B body models. In all my years Ive never seen or heard of one in that color. This isn't the end all on color availability so don't take it as gospel .

restoman Posted February 20, 2017 Author Posted February 20, 2017 Thanks. That's one of the colour book pages I've got.Way, way back, I remember as a kid one of my school teachers had a '70 Super Bee, Turquoise, white top and white tail stripe. I didn't like her, but I fell in love with the car, at the tender age of 6. Finally picked up a '70 so it'll be done to the best of my memory.Just read that Q3 was a Chrysler & Dodge colour, A/B/C bodies, no Plymouths.
