The first picture is most likely how it will finish. The cream/ivory will be a traditional finish. I'm trying to replicate the old coach built 2 tone look.

First I have to get the black just right and the factory painters will be responsible for that. I can imagine a lot of coats of lacquer to get a really deep gloss finish.

The guy that did the restoration on my Ferrari has restored Pebble Beach winning cars and will be doing the coach line pin striping and the cream/ivory after I take delivery as a late winter project.

Shooter,
I can totally see where you are coming from. I think the car will be fantastic and will probably replace a violet Aero Supersport as my new favourite.
Thank you for having the courage to commission it and letting us all see it.
Without a doubt, the world will be a nicer place with this car in it, well done.

Reg cheers


Here for a good time not a long time!!

I think it's going to look stunning, retro and modern in a perfect mix thumbs

The yellow scheme looks great, and reminds me of the classic film "Yellow Rolls Royce". You just need to tick the cocktail cabinet on your order form to complete the look.

Mogs as a rule lend themselves to two tone paint, but that, my dear Shooter, is going to be absolutely stunning !!! I can't wait to see pictures of the finished article.
