Anyone have a 1956 white bird with peacock blue interior?

I'd like to see a pic of the interior. I swear mine looks more like a turquoise.

56Tbird,

Please post a picture of your interior. It will give us a better idea of what you are talking about. You may also want to post the information from the dataplate. It will give us a good idea of what the car had colorwise when it came from the factory.

Regards,

The data plate shows Peacock Blue. Here's a pic.

From what I can tell by your picture, your interior is in fact Peacock Blue. How old is the interior? It could have faded some. The turquise color is much lighter and was a 55' color. In any event; there is a good picture of a white/ peacock blue on ebay right now.

Thanks Billybird. The interior is original, minus the seat covers. The seats are about 30 years old.

I checked the ebay listing, and it looks just like mine. I knew the Turquoise was a 55 color, but wasn't sure how much difference in color.

I have a peacock blue exterior and interior, aren't they the same interior color as the white exterior?

I assume they are. Can you post a pic?

OK, here they are:

Thanks for the pics. I see your blue very different than mine. I see pics on other sites, and look just like mine. That's what confuses me between the 55 turquoise, and the Peacock Blue in 56.

I think the '55 color is lighter than the '56 and with more green in it. I know some call the '55 blue color, "aqua".

In your opinion, does mine look Aqua, or Peacock blue?

It looks peacock blue, but faded a bit maybe. My pictures are interior garage pics with lower light than your outdoor sunlit ones. But I don't see the greenish tint associated with '55 aqua.

Thanks Mike.

56Tbird: Have you ever seen a 55 with the turqouise and white interior? If you have or had, you should never wonder about yours again. I worked for 30 years in a field where my living depended on deciphering colors. Rest your mind, your interior is Peacock.

I haven't seen a 55 turquoise, and colors on computer screens don't always look right. Thanks Billybird. I do feel better now that you guys have commented.

I painted my 55 peacock blue. I think it is an authentic formula, and I love the color. While it has a hint of turquoise, it is much darker than the stock 55 Thunderbird Blue color. I left the wedge under the armrest of the doors the original color for comparison. The upholstery is slightly darker than the stock color, but it is more turquoise than the body. Pics attached.
