In response to our blog post "Contemplating Color", Jeff Anderson of Lewisville, North Carolina was kind enough to send us a picture of his 1950 Piper Pacer PA-20 - showing off its perfect paint job. The finish gleams. Jeff you've set the bar awfully high! Jeff tells us that the colors are called "Boston Maroon" and "Tucson Cream". Classy and strikingly beautiful Jeff.
Once we had a look at these colors, Tom and I both voted thumbs-up, but Nick said it was too late to paint the Clipper the same way...the Clipper's paint had already been purchased last winter. Now if only Nick could remember what colors he bought...it's going to be a surprise...
See the March 2012 issue of Short Wing Piper News (Carolinas chapter) for an article and more photos of Jeff's gorgeous Pacer.

Thanks for your comment. We figured anyone who stumbled across our blog was a fellow vintage aircraft buff, so we hope you've enjoyed our tales of triumph along with the woe. I'll pass along any questions you may have for Nick and Tom; maybe, just maybe they'll figure out an answer! Keep flying! Regards,
Kate
