I purchased this car in Nov of 2007. The previous owner sold the car due to health issues. I have completely dismanteled the car and had it stripped (chemically dipped, not sand blasted). The car is now all black with black interior. The original color was cream with black boot, bonnet and side panels. The interior was black as it is now. I am restoring the car for my wife and she wanted it all black. You guys know how that works.....I have the car about 75% reassembled.
