Very nice. The '71 / 72 Satellite / RRs are my favorite cars.

Sweet ride what is the colour code?
Sometimes I get to feeling that if Xmas, Fathers Day and my Birthday did not exist, then aftershave too would not exist.

1971 Tor-red/hemi orange, V2. It's a metallic orange. It's not a base/clear mix here, I used acrylic enamel first, then cleared over it. Took me almost 6 months when we got the first car to realize it is a metallic, and only saw it then when the sun lit it up. I did clear over it, so that MAY change the shade to a little richer, but in looking at old pics of the car, it actually looks a little lighter. Could just be the fading of certain pigments in the old pics too.
