 Colour schemes Found this picture on a French website, I assume it is Heerey's Cox 1150 in the background, no idea who the bouffoned chap is! Does anyone know of a good colour shot of the HH cox? I would love to recreate the blue to silver colour scheme on my car. if not I may do plain blue/yellow. Though I watched one of those Discovery car programmes and they did a metal flake paint job... Very 70's!

Re: Coloue schemes I'll go for the TC, not sure how long she would survive in your current climate, but you would have great fun keeping her warm

Re: Coloue schemes Ahem......back on topic -- John Baggott's book says "The car had a striking paint job -- the top was dark blue, merging into purple, with silver at the bottom."
I'm colour blind so purple's a bit of a mystery to me -- perhaps Turbocox has some info/pictures.

Re: Colour schemes Not sure how easy a colour scheme like that is. Will be worth asking the painters when the time comes though.
