some old ones




some newer ones



there is defo more than one shade. but to be sure i just foned my local ford garage and they only list one shade now

Code they list is 56. The five stands for the moonstone and the six stands for the year of manufacture of the car - ie if car was an 87 cosworth the paint code would be 57.

Best off asking a paint manufacturer about the diff shades.

Graig N thanks for the picts, but everything including the dude looks blue in them!
Ok so Bad boy says K6, and R4N SS said 56 or 57 depending on the year.
I would ask the paint shop but that car was never here so I don't know if they can look it up??
and If I tell them to look it up what do I tell them?? K6 or 56???

It's impossible to tell from photos. Every camera will show the colour differently to the next! (Especialy digital cameras)
