Title: Another controversial question
Post by: nigelb42 on August 20, 2004, 08:25:29 AM
Lets see what can of worms I can open with this one  ;D

If my FC has a 1959 colour scheme with the roof and main body one colour and the flash and boot and door tops the other colour (India ivory with a fountain blue flash).  The dash top should be semi gloss black - correct ?   which means the lower dash should be what colour?

The interior is (or was) viscount blue and black so did this mean the inner doors were blue or black?

but seriously guys, one day this site will rank up there with the National Archives (its helped me a bloody lot anyway   :)) as a reference material.  Keep up the good work and thanks for being so generous with the info.

Thanks Ace,

With the grey satin finish is there a paint code for this, like how grey, cause it looks black to me

I agree with you Nige.  

This is a bloody great site with contributions from very helpful and amazingly knowledgeable people - and it's very entertaining as well.  It's caused me a few late nights and given me lots of laughs.

Thanks to all the people who have helped me so far - and many of you don't know you've assisted me.

Martin

I wish there was a forum as detailed as this for all the other models as well.  I have looked at some others and I tell you we are spoilt here.
