Green delivery.
If you have some, would you be so kind to post them ?
Thank you.

Thanks Chuck, each single piece helps. I need to buy the book though
I am a bit puzzled with the colors of this beauty. The green varies from one pic to another. I have a model of it which shows a green very close to viper green, but on some pictures it look like a darker one...

I spoke to David Piper at the Solitude Revival back in 2011 and he told me he had a few sets of bodywork for the car - multiple liveries as well as the fact that the paint color probably changed slightly each time it was painted due to whomever was mixing.

The color used was officially BP Green.

With a very good reference here are some interesting information:

RAL 6029 should be good. Nice color by the way.
