I think you should stick as close to the original blue current color) as
you can. Everyone forgets how hard it is to do and pay for a really good
paint job that gets the door jams and other hard to reach areas. If you
really want another color either be prepared to pay in excess of $5000 to
have it painted or to have multi color door, bonnet and boot jams that are
ugly and you will regret later.

Hi Laine,
Very nice indeed. It looks about the same colour as my 90 was, before
repainting. Do you know if it's the original paint?
Yours is only about the second P4 I've seen with the blue interior.
If you send me the details, I'll add your car to my P4 page,
http://home.ican.net/~magnet/P4
Cheers,

It is a repaint, thought they tried their best to match it. The color
visible beneath is more indigo, so it was dark blue. The dark blue paint
patch bottle is still in the kit, too.
The engine had a vin from a RHD from overseas, but the body is 6480000012.
It makes me wonder if it has the original points.
What other info would you like?
Laine

Lately here it has been bigfoot and the wolfman. There aere stories about
the Swamp Thing from Diffin, But I know her, she's cool. Just don't let her
drive.
Honestly, my knowledge of motor designations is pretty pathetic.
When numbers come into it, my brain scrams. The language of the internal
combustion engine remains elusive to me. Give me time.

John's going to love the list you made for him!
!)
There's no better way to get to know a vehicle. In the case of the brakes, I
almost cried when I saw how clean they are. The pads look great and the
lines are... maybe I should put up some more pics.
What else should I show?

If someone offers a colour suggestion for your car, I believe I can acquire
the paint code for PPG Automobile paint. They let me have access to online
information :-)

I haven't really thought about the color. My husband is good with Photoshop
and he tried a few colors out on it. I like red with white on other cars,
but it just looked silly on her. Kind of clownish.
The curves make her a good candidate for the color shifting paints. Maybe a
purple/green with a peacock design? I could make the viking it's beak...
nah.
mechanicals first, pretties later.
