Subject: Re: Planning a Repaint
Ah - thanks!
The car is the 16/80 that was road tested by The Autocar and The Motor in Aug / Sept 1932 - and The Motor Sept 20th 1932 front cover pic showed a light green with black bonnet and scuttle. This ties up with the log book 'black & green'.

The Motor painting must have been a bit speculative, tho', as it shows the cranked headlamp support crossmember of previous models. I guess it was done by an artist before the car was finished...

Cheers
