Bonnie Hunt from Quiltville has a beautiful FW that she recently bought and she calls Hot Rod Magenta.

I L-O-V-E that color!!! It reminds me of the Duster's of the late '60's that were painted Moulin Rouge. Billy, what would this paint color be called? I had asked you several months ago about painting a machine this color.
Dodge called it "Panther Pink" and that is a color I was going to paint my FW until I found out that it was a very early one.
Honestly I think the repaints bring the value of the machine up I can not tell you how many machines that are not the "Factory Black" go for 3 times the price of the original. I sell to a quilt shop and they sell theirs for $1000+ and I can not supply them quick enough.
If the finish is really pristine I will not repaint them but if any decals are missing or it is scratched up then I am going to refinish it and change to colors up.
