MM/Srs2 dashboard gold paint

Post by RobThomas »

Just to let you know that Car-Paints-Plus in Bridgend are about to stop selling the Morris dash gold cellulose. They were contracted to make an exact match about 15 years ago from a selection of a few dozen original panels for an MMOC member so the stuff is about as close as you'll get.
