Then it's out with the Guards Red, detailed Fuchs, plaid seat inserts, colour-coded headlamp rims and door handles and matt-black T-bars. Awesome! I knew you'd see sense in the end!  Grin

I just knew you'd drop in  Wink Smiley I already told you can't do it "Mid life crsis red" The rest sounds about right though Smiley

Something like this but in willow green  Huh Wink Smiley

I remember it - Phil Anning's oval. Think it was a RHD '54. Ivan and I had a conversation on another forum a couple of years ago about it! I loved it but Ivan pointed out some of the not so great bits like the mirrors! The overall look was right though. Made a great impression on me anyway!  Wink

A friend of mine called me yesterday and said he was going to Goodwood tomorrow - sadly I couldn't go as we've got a lot on and a deadline!  EBI - two shows this weekend - a four day week next week then Bug Jam... Anyway, he told me he was going in his new Porsche. I asked him what he'd bought and he got as far as saying 'A Guards Re... I'd put the phone down before he finished the word!

lay off the chimaybeer Lee! that buscolour is a big nono. it just doesn't have that extra though that the porsche has...
and if we talk green porshes, i like this one, but it is different...

BTW that metallic green has my vote, but i just wouldn't paint my car a metallic colour again... but that said i always end up picking a metallic colour.

The second metallic color looks great in that pic, but the metallics might look a little too much like a LaGrande 70s Bug.

there are some realy nice greens in this topic and ik will suit a 70ies callooker very well.  Your manx (had a look at EBI) turned out great, so the beetle will be no problem at all if you assemble it in the same style...
