It almost sounds like you're describing a 1960s Dearborn
color... Wimbledon White, which found its way onto a lot of
Mustangs in the late '60s. It's not a cooler off-white like GM
Ermine White, nor is it a cold tone like Appliance White. It's
almost a cream color, just a little lighter... with a hint of reddish
brown in the shadows if the evening twilight hits it right although
in bright sunlight it's indeed white. However, in winter when
there's a heap of snow on part of the car, you immediately see how
much whiter the snow is.
You need to take a look at a chip chart or go to a car show and check
out a late '60s Mustang that appears white but isn't quite white
enough to go unnoticed. And I don't wanna hear any guff about Fords
from you GM diehards... I like Wimbledon White enough to have
painted my 1966 Plymouth Satellite musclecar that color.
