For the sake of originality...well Ill keep the 1750 in storage....
Regarding colours...yes I have seen photos of the car in Giallo Ochre and yes I am considering it....only for the sake of originality.....but for some reason the British Racing green colors seem to always attract me and catch my eye as well..
Im going to the spray painter now to have a chat and thank you again.....

There are plenty of pre-butchered 1750's around that you could do this to. Please don't FANNY about with a good original car, you will hate yourself for it later and the next owner will curse you too.
I think we are going to have to confiscate this car for its own protection if you are going to do things like this. Leave it alone and original please!!
