Does anyone know what color Jerry Harvey's 63 Galaxie was?

Is this the white '63 ROMY HAMMES Ford Galaxie you are building? If it is,a quick check with the PPG/Ditzler paint chart shows a Corinthian White as a stock Ford color for that year. I painted mine with a Wimbledon White Dupli-Color Touch Up

spray, and used Fred Cady decals on the car. Hope this is helpful.

No the Romy Hammes Ford was Bick Brannan's it was a white car. I am looking for Jerry Harvey's it looks like a silver car with black top and it had Bob Ford Inc.

This car ?

 

There is also a recreation around , its silver

No it was a 63 Ford I saw it on George Klass Remembers in the super stock section but it was an A/MP car. The car had a black top but was wondering the body color. I looked at Ford colors for 63 and they had Champagne Poly, Fieldstone Tan Poly, Rose Beige Poly and Sandshell Beige it looks like it could have been one of those or maybe silver.

Not this car either?

[johnwitzke]

This one right?

My guess is light gold (champagne) like the 1964 Thunderbolt.  I would say this car was campaigned after 1963.  If you look in the background there is a 1964 GTO parked

Thanks john good eye. That is what I normaly do because I don't loke to build from a picture of a restored car.  missed that this time. I agree with you on the color and i think that is what i am going to do.

Ok, That car.

 

Ive seen this picture before and completely forgot about this one. I agree , its gold. But I'm going to assume with a champagne gold interior maybe ?

 

And as an fyi, you know Competition resin makes a tear drop hood that fits this body ?  ( I've got one )  And I think Drag City Casting makes one as well ???????

 

I'd be interested in a set of the decals to do this car for myself

Champaign Gold. Bob Ford also had some earlier Galaxies that were yellow.

The correct color for both the Galaxie and the Thunderbolt is 1962-63 Champagne (aka Castilian Gold), color code "I". This comes from the current owner of the Tbolt.

Does anyone know what the decal above the front wheel and the decal in front of the rear wheel is on the Jerry Harvey 63 ford in the third photo?

I'm a member of a vintage drag car group on Facebook.

 

I asked on there and the reply I got is

"Power by Ford" on front fender, M&H Racemaster tire is the round one.

 

[gtx6970]

I think he is right,,,,,,Sure looks likes one of these. If I had to guess, my bet is on the yellow one

I can see the power by Ford but the round decal does not have any writing it looks to me like a girls face with pig tails.

So do you guys think there would be much interest in a decal sheet for this car?
