Matchbox 33a Ford zodiac

[patrick68]

Hello,

I got two cars 33a

Can someone tell me which colors these are?


Thanks

The 33a Ford Zodiac (along with the 42b Studebaker Lark) is notoriously difficult to photograph well. Probably the best place for you to start is Nick's catalogue page for this model, which contains a number of comparison shots, all with decent colour balance.

Being sad the luna pearl granite worktop looks a bit dull / dark .....
A better white ballance would help

Patrick I have resized your image for ease of viewing.

Patrick, I have corrected some of the White balance which on my VAIO laptop screen, now makes them look more Blue.

Certainly the lefthand model now has a blueish cast to it but, as I said, this is an extremely difficult model to photograph well.
It would be interesting to see a photograph of these models taken outside, in daylight (but not in direct sunlight), and without flash.

The blue version is rare, but as has been said, the dark green often looks exactly like the blue in photos.

The blue version is rare...

We have a thread about that model!

I must have missed that one. Very interesting, if still inconclusive.

Compare your models with this photo all the colours are correct.
