Chassis Color on Shelby American MkII's

[Derek]

I'm curious were all Shelby American MkII chassis painted dark blue like 1046, or was that just random...?

(Pictures from the last restoration of 1046.)

Is that dark blue or just the way the camera renders a satin black? Colors in a computer image can be very misleading

The prototypes were painted dark blue. The color on GT104 is and maybe a couple of the other cars may still be the original color. From what i have seen of the prototypes as well as 1046, they all seem to be a very similar shade.

Seen that thread, but was more curious on if this color was used across the board or just on 1046....
