Hi Guys, thanks for all your help, although the poll says stone grey, i have decided to go black, it will just work so well with the bomber brown leather through out and the silver and black fuch wheels.

In fact i have just phoned Roger Bray and told to go ahead and order the paint, so there is no going black, sorry back now.

So, now that youve chosen you would like to see black coupe pics so you can look forward to it.
As a previous owner of a black porsche ...theres nothing washes up better than a black car ...but they do show up everything including the quality of finish.

Some for the scrapbook ...

Higs356, i love that 1st 356, mine should look very similar, except i will have leather bonnet straps and fuch wheels.

I am now sold, I am glad i chose black, I know it will be a pig to keep clean, but thats the price for beauty.
