Title: Single colour FE's Post by: mike on December 29, 2002, 01:57:29 AM Hi I have just bought another FE (october 56) and its a single colour (ocean mist green) with two tone interior (italian green and lymph green) and was just wondering if these are unusual and were they a special order.
thanks mike. Title: Re: Single colour FE's Post by: mcl1959 on December 29, 2002, 11:04:31 AM Mike - cant find your other post about the FE. Anyway no matter.
I dated your car as late September 1956 - I was pretty close! Most 1 colour FE 225's have a 2 tone painted interior 2 match the exterior and 2 tone seats The second colour inside does not have a code number on the ID plate and sometimes is a standard colour and sometimes is not. The exceptions to this rule are White & Black cars which have all body colour painted interior, although I have made mention of a black car I found recently with a black and silver painted interior. Certainly every 1 colour green FE 225 I have records of has 2 tone interior paint & seats.

thanks mike. Title: Re: Single colour FE's Post by: mcl1959 on December 29, 2002, 11:14:32 AM Much appreciated. Try for an overcast day so shadows don't run across the interior.
