    When you compare 2 cars of the same colour they rarely match. From factory in would be slightly different depending if you got the top of the barrel or the last of the paint barrel . Silver mink was a good example , ive seen heated debates over whos car was the real silver mink!!

    It is even worse when they were painted at the GMH plants where the front sheetmetal was painted in the assembly plant. Elizabeth did this, painted the body in the body plant, and the the front panels were painted at a different time and place. Shows up even more on vans and later on on tonners where the bodies were painted at Elizabeth and the front panels painted at Dandenong or Pagewood. A silver Mist HJ van or Deauville blue suffered terribly from this.
