it won't let me access any pic's... have you got a photobucket account??

[DaveC]

Not a bad project.
Was it originally yellow? The interior and behind the fuel tank seem to have been grey
I would say your Mother was delighted with the chairs!!!

[ROB R]

Yes it was originally yellow but it was kinda restored years ago and the inside was painted grey at the time...i think it got two new floors and sills at the time but the welding isnt pretty ha

Rob,

I'd say this was your original colour, a light brown not unlike the official colour "Stone" that kerryminigringo's Mk2 is:

ah no im very sure its origonal colour is yellow, it says it on motor check and the previous owner

[keith]

Hmmm.. . . . id say the original colour is most likely that which was *behind* the petrol tank.....

[DaveC]

When it was painted yellow, the colour change was probably notified to the tax office, so that is why it shows up as yellow on motor check

[ROB R]

ooohhh yes i see it now haha thanks for correcting me guys

[kerryminigringo]

That brown would be an Irish spec colour,my MKII was originally that colour but I went with a lighter shade of brown as I could never get to like it.Get us posted on progress.
