Hi,

Could you guys please post some PICS of a 1967-1973 maroon/burgundy coupe P-car?

thanx

do a search under "aubergine"

Aubergine is more purple. Maroon has alot of brown in it. They are very different in person, but both are hard to photograph accurately.

Aubergine is gonna be my color.....is it a popular color for old P-Cars?

I find it beautiful

There are a few around. I think Jim Richard's E is aubergine. I like the color alot, although my first choice is still signal orange.

Here's a shot of my '72. A PO painted it a custom mix of a mercedes burgundy and black. So it sometimes looks burgundy, sometimes brown. This is probably darker than what you're looking for.

Just click the link in my sig, lots of shots of my Aubergine car.

Thanks Todd. Here's a pic of Aubergine on a cloudy Spring day. It looks different in different lighting conditions.

Couldn't resist, it's my favorite early color. Mine taken under cloudy skies:http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1086562364.jpg

The indoor lighting doesn't help, but it is burgundy,
my '71T coupe:

The burgundy looks dark brown under florescents and in dim lighting, but has a pinkish tint in direct mid-day sun.

I thought you were going for silver with red interior..

Aubergine with a red interior sounds interesting....

Bruce,

Is that Aubergine?

SvK

Bruce,

I love your car......

Post some interior pics

Bruce's 73S is aubergine.

Jim,
Are you thinking of changing the Aubergine?

Here's a burgundy'ish color
