Have you seen a Bright Blue FRC?

Does anyone have a pic of a Bright Blue FRC from '99 or '00? Did any of these cars come with an interior color other than black?

These are the rarest exterior colors according to FRC Tom's data.

The 2000 Nassua Blue is the lowest color production of FRCs with only 189.

Tom, is that a grey interior on the Bright Blue car?

How different is the Bright Blue in hue from the Nassau Blue?

They are the same color 23U.
My car came with black interior, I then started to go red, white, and blue. After 9/11 I didn't want to appear I was jumping on the bandwagon and started to change over to oak.
Went broke and sold it last year.

IMO the Nassau Blue was the best looking color of the 99 & 00 FRCs. AND, I am not saying that because FRC Tom had one either. Tom changes color of his interiors like he changes the colors of his sox and Converses.

Hope you are doing well Tom. I miss seeing you at the local events. Good luck!

Don

Here's another one. When I first bought my baby I was looking through the RPO codes and the "bright" blue and Nassau blue wording really threw me for a loop.

Have a good one,
Mike

Something along the lines of "prying my cold, dead, fingers off the wheel" comes to mind.

She's got rock chips, rocker panels are sandblasted dull, windshield is pitted, and I DON'T CARE!

Well, I do care (she'll get painted, sometime in the future, and I'm going to try to polish out the windshield, sometime in the future, you get the idea), but not enough to keep me from putting around 14K miles a year on her!

Have a good one,
Mike
