That car is almost legendary because of the peachy colour, that was supposed to me Go Mango...I've got to ask, what was the original colour? :read2:

Maybe buying a car of the non peachy variety would or should have been the order of the day :roll:

If I had the choice though I would have the car done a dark blue candy :)

True, but I think that is what yours was supposed to have been painted. As I say with it's history, I might be tempted to leave it as it is or paint it the original colour, particularly if it was a rare colour, that would be cool, especially with so many cars refinished in the popular colours like black, Tor-Red and Plum Crazy.

But as so many have said before, it's your car, do what you like!

I don't get this stick it back to original quote all the time. If its a crap colour & you fancy something different just do it. The next person who owns it can change it again. All these quotes of its worth more original are Bananarama!. Perhaps I should pull my 440 out & stick the 318 back in, while I am at it I will paint it crappy FY 1 yellow. Be worth a mint then. :mytwocents:

Not trying to single you out Rob. Just my opinion :thumbright: :help:
