It nearly was Java Green at one point, but went with this colour, as a random choise out of a colour catalouge, however it does remind me of the colour of Mike Mahaffey 51 split ( as printed in Keith Sume's cal look book)

Nice ride.

The colour is just a tad different from java green, slightly more light blueish...

Btw, is it a 67, or did you change your 69 into a 67 model?

It is actualy registered as a 69, but the chasiss number shows that it was built in 68. When I bought it as a part done project it allready had the pre 68 pannels on it. To help with the illusion I have changed the door handles to 67 handles, but there are still a few details to give it away as a 69, like the number plate ;D

Witch kind of engine lid is this? i am just looking exactly for this type.......

The decklid is a single skin fiberglass piece that came from the Painbox.

I am interested in that decklid as well, I emailed them a while back and never heard back. 67 lid, correct?

I am in the US.

PS, your car is hot as balls.

Motor pics?

Yes it is a 67 lid. You would have better luck phoning the Paintbox.

This is the best shot that I have got of the motor at the moment, it has had the wiring tided up since this picture.
