The Miller Hauler colors. The colors Stinger pick for the little truck were chosen even before he finished his last mock-up of the Hauler. The Green Brian picked is called Lotus New Racing Green (Beach Craft). It is Chroma One Dupont…paint number K9349G. The Yellow is a custom mix…”Martha Stewart 106″…that his wife picked while visiting LOWE’S. The inside frame box plate, x-member, cross-member…is Dupont MM097. The driveline, engine, transmission, drive-shaft, rear-end…is Dupont MM085. The louvers on the truck are polished. That look was applied because Brian liked the look of some louvers on various Duesenbergs he had seen. The polished louvers fit with the polishing of the Miller grille. Stinger actually did a number of paint test panels before picking each color and the correct look for the louvers. Thanks to Moose (louver polish)...Warren (paint) and Tom Evans striping.

Those were the colors I picked at the beginning. These are all the colors that I made test panels with to get the final colors I wanted. But there is “nothing” wrong with painting a car with single stage urethane. When Warren painted it…he used base-coat/clearcoat Glasurit paint with the green off the codes of the Chroma One I chose.

I know, solids seem to give better glass thats way, but it always seems to buff wierd for me, I know a lot of guys use single stage though
