Stone Grey or Black poll and pics please

Post by TheBaron »

Right i am now in the final week before my 356 gets sprayed, I have changed my mind from last time which was either slate grey or graphite.

I am now down to either stone grey or black both 58 colors, i need to decide by end of this week.

Interior will be speedster seats and all leather will be waxed bomber brown with oatmeal carpets

It is a GT/outlaw so de-bumbered, fuch wheels, stone guards over headlights, bonnet straps louvered engine lid etc

Do any of you have pics of either color to help.

Many thanks

Could you post up some pictures of 356 in those colours?

It might help with the decision making for you poll :)

If you look on the 356 Registry site there were several pics. recently of stone grey A's with different interiors. Hope this link works.
I quite fancied the colour as well and I'm having a sample made up.

That looks like its Aetna blue, which thankfully, is my original colour, and the colour my 356 is now.

Nice pic !!!!!
Contact me if you have any 356b coupe parts !!!!

That is an awesome coupe...the green leather interior is great. I have a picture of it after a rather unfortunate racing bump :(
