Leroy, are you doing touchup or a repaint? I love the looks of the 88
to 90 wbpts. Some of the stripe colors they introduced in the 90's got less classic and more personal. I often wondered if BB just allowed customers to make these design crimes in special order coaches. A fun thing to do is manipulate the color of your coach in a paint program. Doesn't sound like it will hurt to get creative with the colors if you are thinking of a repaint. while looking for a coach when I read "custom paint" it had the same effect as "she's got a pretty face" Gregory O'Connor 94pt gray silver pink and green missing a chandelier and piano --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "jwasnewski" > > Curt: > I talked to Steve Birtles today about my paint codes.

Gregory: Not thinking about a repainting. The paint is in fabulous shape, not
a scratch anyplace except a couple of recent chips that I did while changing the broken end of the main Zip Dee awning brace. I dropped the main awning on the side of the coach. Ouch! Dumb! It could have been worse. I don't know about the paint or design on our girlie bus---turquoise and rose over two tone gray---but our interior was altered by the original owner during construction. Our interior is top notch. I have been told that Royal did the interior, haven't been able to verify. Got Steven Birtles looking into it although it really doesn't mean anything, talking points maybe. The idea of repainting has previously been squashed by the wife. Thanks for the response.

Lee: Thanks much for the reply. A double check shows 73773 should have been
79773. The 92329 number is stamped in the upper left hand corner of the paint code sticker. So, 79773 is the correct number. Can I purchase the paint from you? I haven't found any locally. Need it for touch up purposes. What is the shelf life?

leroy, if it is touchup I would just take the bus to a good dealer
autobody shop and get an out the door quote ( may be less expensive than you think). Chances are that the paint color will change with the transfering out of the 1990's restricted formulas. and in the quart mininum mix quantities you will need you are talking over 400. bucks. A good shop can site mix and blend. you won't get the code excuse "but sir that is the paint code you ordered." Prism in the metalic paints is also something that will be hard to match unless you have special skills. maybe the paint code is a royal number. Bob and Dixie G have a 92 Royal conversion, I wonder if they have info on the codes.

Gregory: I did think about shading differences etc. You are
probably correct. I may get a bid from the local paint shop. The area that I screwed up is on the entry door, maybe 2x3. Didn't dent anything, just scratched and chipped the paint, obviously right where I can constantly see the damage. Thanks for the input. Been gone from CA for awhile.

Leroy, Class A is needed for trailers at and above 10,000# GVW even
if they are empty. 5th wheel at or above 15,000# GVW. CHP pulls out these rules when it looks like the driver is being unsafe. The easiest way to beat a ticket is by default - when the CHP officer does not showup in court. I was cited by a Officer J Kennedy and rescheduled court for 'Good Friday'. When Officer H. Grinblatt gave me a ticket I rescheduled for the start of 'Yom Kippur'. My most recent ticket was isued by Officer Ms. Kimberly C. I sent a check. Women can multitask.
