'quattro' swb project

[Tonybolony]

Several of the photo's look like a metallic dark green, which mine was- as reply no. #37
Looks green to me!

[Seadub75]

Nope, it's definitely black. Could be the clouds of grinding disc dust in the pictures distorting the colour.

I've got the roof tacked on now. I've never moved the body to alter the door gaps!!

Photos 2,3,&4 on this page (#37) are of a Black car????? Sure looks Green to me?

[Seadub75]

Yes, the coupe is black and the saloon (roof, doors, etc) is gold. Have you been drinking a lot over Christmas?

[Tonybolony]

Obviously not enough, Eh?
From the photo's, looks identical colour that mine was. Mine had been painted before I bought her, some 10 years ago?? Anyway- the paint had lifted above both roof rails (in line with B pillars) which would identify it. Having said that, altho I would love to think that mine had now become an SWB with a 20v, the thought of her becoming a donor car.....
Good luck with the project Bud, looking good so far; keep the photo's coming??

Thanks Tony, there'll be more updates soon after Christmas once I've finished the turkey and mince pies off!

I really like how you have done the chassis joints. I always thought if i was going to do it I would like to try to replicate the factory chassis seams as much as possible to make it less of a "cut 'n' shut" and that is what you've done. Really tidy!

[Seadub75]

Thanks for the kind words.

[Seadub75]
