Building my first Austin Seven car

[narrowgauger]

hi Daisy
car project is looking fabulous, but it might worthwhile to further consider your ultimate colour choice, taking into consideration the unique features of your beautiful car, such as:
- the body shape is obviously quite unique, but .......... it ulitimately still remains an A7. it is not a US style hotrod. it is a A7 with a body that could have been created around the 1930 time period.

- taking these factors into account it is (in my view) important that your car be seen as a seriousl example of what could have been as an art-deco car of the 30's. this suggests that the colour, whilst showing "character" should preferably be comtempurate with the period.

you might like to take these thoughts into account when taking the final decision on the body colour. hopefully you will come up with a colour that does justice to what will be an extra-ordinary interpretation of the Austin Seven in all its glory.

I give you sincere congratulation in having the courage to build this beautiful machine and look forward to seeing the car in person in the UK sometime in the future

have fun
