So after months (years) of running through colour schemes in my head and even asking Chris to draw up a few options I finally had to make an actual decision.
My original intent was dark grey with light grey stripes, but then all of a sudden there seemed to be a flood of dark grey cars appear so I changed my mind to light grey with dark grey stripes and even got as far as to paint up a spare bonnet to see what it looked like. Then I changed my mind again. After the Signal Orange Targa I did early last year I was leaning back towards the period "safety" colours.
And so......
I made my decision and ordered the paint. Porsche 226 'Lindgrün/Chartreuse'

So having made the decision there was nothing to it but to get on with it, so over Christmas and New Year that's what I did....
First I applied some sound pads
Then Painted the underside.
