Sorry Tom but what you're calling regular gray is gone. I don't buy your
arguments in general either. The model of the Ford was for a 6-wide Lego model a
remarkable piece of work. For the scale it looks very much like the original.
Plus it uses SNOT. The grey in this model is supposed to represent steel. Making
the car 2 diffrent shades of blue might look pretty but it dosn't do anything to
make it a better representation of the original.-Ken
