Re: 356B (T5) Super Coupe 1960 Restoration Project
I've thought about the matt lacquer but have been warned it can be a nightmare to clean, polish it too much and you get shiny patches.

Re: Introduction
Thanks for all the welcome messages. I'm in Mayfield so about 45 mins from Brighton so not too far. I've posted some pics in the 356 section and will try to keep them coming as it progresses. I'll pop one here too for interest!.... http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm7/iledger/02_2_zps9811f0e2.jpg ...

Re: 356B (T5) Super Coupe 1960 Restoration Project
Thanks for the links and info people. The colour chart, if correct, clarifies/confirms 7 colour options and 4 specials, none of which are the colour of my T5. Also, my plastic media blasters have advised that the inside should be (and isn't) covered with bitumen for protection. So it must have fully...

Re: 356B (T5) Super Coupe 1960 Restoration Project
Let's cut to the chase and talk about colour! The colour plate code is slate grey. But I have evidence of the car within months of being purchased in the current colour.

356B (T5) Super Coupe 1960 Restoration Project
