Anybody have any builds in these colors?

Some time ago I came across two cans of Testors' old (early '80s) Car Colors in a discount bin.  The labels have them listed as #1809 Gray Fern Metallic and #1811 Sand Gray Metallic, but the only indicator as to the true color is the little paper label on the top of the can.  

Does anyone have pics of anything built with these colors?  I'd like to see what they look like on an actual kit body before opening them. 

Thanks!

Do a spoon test.   Get some white plastic spoons and spray the back of them.  That's how a lot of guys check out colors.

Expanding Tom's tip (which is a good one; I've been doing this for years):  Be sure to label the inside of the spoon with the brand, number, and color.  Save the spoon.  As you continue to accumulate 'spoon tests,' you'll have a great collection of real-world paint chips.  You can accurately pick just the colors you want for future builds from your spoon collection.
