Hi all
I need to make a choice as to which colour to paint my shell. It is an October '64' car and is currently Tweed Grey. As originality is not an issue, i need to choose between Surf Blue, Fiesta Yellow or the original Tweed Grey. Im leaning towards Surf but cant decide!!! If its anything other than Tweed, I will have a Cooper Grey/Grey interior for sale!!!
What are your thoughts????

Scott, no its not the 1071....I had to let that one go due to not having enough money in my world to restore it!!!!
Pete, no you're not confused, I still have the Tweed 850 but I want it to be a different colour and I am torn between Surf or Fiesta with an 1100 or 1300 lump in it!!

Tweed would certainly be the cheapest route !
I really like Tweed as a colour also.

Of the three in order of preference:
Tweed Grey, Surf Blue, Fiesta Yellow.
With Tweed being way ahead of the other 2.

My first was Surf Blue

I prefer Tweed Grey to the above.
