Does anyone happen to know the color of the Joest #7 1996 LeMans winner? I am beginning the LeMans Miniatures 1/24 scale model and I cannot determine the true color of the car. Any ideas or mixes to replicate the color?

It's a really deep blue... I used a Vauxhaul blue over a black base coat and it came out about right. Not sure what country you are in so you may not be able to get the exact colour I have. If your in the UK try Halfords Vauxhall Kings Blue over a gloss balck base coat.

Thanks for the info, Lotus Man.
I live in the United States and I am not familiar with Vauxhall Blue color. Some of the reference photos I have show a dark blue color also with a slight touch of green. Others show it as a deep blue.
I may just try Testor's Dark Blue over a gloss black base coat as you suggested.
