Let's Talk Non-Zed Datsun Colors

I dug through the forums and didn't see this topic addressed anywhere, so I thought I would start a thread to see if anyone had anything to add to it.

I will probably end up painting my Z the original Orange (#918), but I have been pondering the idea of painting her a Datsun color that didn't come on the Z originally. There was a Z at the Import Nationals a few weeks ago painted in what I think was the Sora Blue (#563) that came on the roadster and, while not my personal thing, got me thinking that there are tons of beautiful colors Datsun used that didn't make it onto the S30.

So, to that end, I thought this would be an interesting topic to bang on while my build thread slows down a bit. I'll start with a few Datsun colors I think would make nice S30 colors, using Datsun paint chips (http://www.uniquecarsandparts.com.au/paint_charts_datsun_nissan.php) as a starting point.

Grey Green #546

Dragon Green #558

Turquoise #562

Bamboo #529

I think this is Datsun Grey #518

Cocoa Brown #214
