Restoration is to restore something back to its original look and characteristics so it has to be its original colour. Simples!

only my opinion but I say to paint this car anything other than original is just wrong. restoring it has to be about preserving its originality. colour change is imo an insult to the whole meaning of what this car is/was

Keep it original Arran White

Anthony & Maricel · 17th April 2011, 21:19

Keep it Arran white please

James.uk · 18th April 2011, 01:12

Hmmm, maybe a delicate Pink with bottom half in Orange, then to finish it off nicely, do the wheels in mud Brown..

Like James said. Original please.

I agree with the original look. A Car should always be kept as close to the way it looked the day it rolled off the line, or at least that is what I believe.

Dougie · 7th May 2011, 07:02

The same, please restore to OE Arran White.

Due to the very nature of this cars history....It has to be put back to original.....So it's Arran White.
