What colour should it be?

Post by **youngun** » Mon Jul 09, 2007 7:40 pm

Is there any way of finding out the correct orginal colour for my Mog, as it has obviously had a full respray at some time now that ive got down to the nitty gritty. Upon removing the headlining (what a PIG of a job) i have found a nice sage green colour, underneath of which is black. Was this just standard undercoat, or has it been messed around with?

What is the full prefix to your chassisnumber? Everything before the / that is

Synthetic paint, so much for sprayin over the inside with cellulose.

Dark grey, so thats not the colour it is now then! (the photo doesnt show it very well, but its actually a blue/greeny grey colour)

Ah, now that is a nice colour! So, my mog has obviously had a very thorough respray at some point then!

Clarendon Grey is a lovely colour, my '54 was that colour. As shown on my signature
