Winter White is a wonderful bright white, which I prefer but the ZF was ex factory polar white, and so it shall remain.

Polar white definitely has a cream look. It is paint code 3.

This is Polar White on mine. It looks "white" in the bright light and more creamy in the dark and shade. You really notice the difference when compared side by side to stark white. It's the best white ever!

The paint code for Polar White is also E (A) for '65/66 Cortinas.

I have a similar problem...my ZD is Ultra white and I think a bit bland but I think it will be resprayed Polar White..it actually looks like an eggshell type white to me which I think adds a whole heap of character

I have an Escort Mk1 in Polar White which still looks great till today, looks good in any light, so that would be my pick.

Straight white tinter...
I painted a Cortina we once owned in straight white tinter, and when I was buying it the guy said it would be "too white" and would need to be "dimmed down" (or some such technical words...) to be put on a car. It was cheap though, so I bought it and painted it. Yep...it was frigging bright alright... |
