paint colour
Hi everyone, I'm a new member , and I thought I would introduce myself. I live close to the Suffolk coast, and I've just taken delivery of a 1962 1000 saloon. It's a project, not for me, as I'm far too old and can just about change a wheel. The bodywork is virtually rust free, though I wish I could say the same about the underside! Why is it that so many of the colour shades are so similar. I can't decide whether the colour of mine is Dove Grey or Old English White, as they look so similar in the many pics i've viewed. I guess I'll have to wait for the Heritage certificate to arrive to find out. Cheers, Mike.

The paint is dove grey on this one, but the below wheels are old english white if that helps

Re: paint colour
Odd wheels, rims usually either riveted or spot welded?
Further investigations uncovered it was an inside job!!![](mbimage.php?src=sig_12209)
