Eddie it is a true pearl paint on the machine. It's a lavender with red pearl over tones and a clear over it.
Back when this paint was made they used fish scales to come up with the pearl effect. So this was a very expensive color to use and there were less than 3500 of these machines made this model and color.

My machines are just regular ole' machines :oops: but I love each of them - one in particular...
