    Hmm, a different colour is tempting for tempory use on my wb. Look like a wog chariot from the 70's. It would have to still look better than most of the w&^k mobile rural ute that seem to have proliferated in Sydney!

    WB got N67 rims if you specified "GTS" style or sports rims, maybe put some of those on. They are pretty cheap when they come up.

    OK. I have the N66 wheels and am realy chasing some B45 Simmons for my WB. I think it is going to have a facelift. Wheels, no bull bar and maybe pull the stone gaurds off. Although I see Jasons still has his stone gaurds on and they look good.

    I wish the HZ Sandman came with the body colour on the wheels. I reckon it looks very cool.

    I like different.

    Hmmm. I can see Ian fitting DY3 coloured N66 rims to his van soon.....Orange rims with DY3 pinstripes. Hard to imagine but might be cool.

    I used to have a 1413 coloured HJ Kingswood ute (Jade Green with white roof). When I bought it it had been resprayed in gold with a WB Caprice front etc. But the original spare off the car was an N66 rim which I still have. It was painted in 1413 ie white rim with Jade Green other bits. A lot of the paint has come off and there is no silver underneath anywhere. So it makes me wonder if this is how N66 rims came on 2 tone vehicles. Not appicable to Sandman I know but still interesting.

    Byron those codes are coming up as trim numbers. Do you have the mixing codes?

    They are Dulon formulae. The same as the last bit of BODY tag paint lines like 567-15456. Not sure how they'd come up as trim codes.

    You will have to find a paint supplier who sells PPG paints to have any Dulon paint codes mixed up. PPG took over Dulon and have the same tinters, to any other supplier they are just meaningless numbers.

    Try to find a Holden dealer who has a paint shop in their parts dept. as they have all the codes on computer and can mix most colours for you.
