Hey Terry, sure you want to go down that colour road, remember Russel Ks brush with the McLaren Trust over the paint sceme on his M8B replica!!! I'm sure you are far enough away from NZ and the trust for it to not be an issue. As some of the guys have already said, even the original cars were not the same tint from model to model.
The official colour is "Papaya Orange" it will look amazing no mater what colour it is, sorry i didn't get time to put some photo's up on my thread before I came back to work, I'm going to make a real effort for the rest of this year to get some progress. You and John are making me look slack and I can't have that.
Cheers Leon
