Ulster colours

[Bill Sheehan]

Also worth remembering that enamel and early cellulose paints were far from colour stable, in particular reds! The showroom colour would mellow over the passing years. I am told by an enamel paint expert that it reaches the "designed" colour at about 2-3 years old. At the end of the day you just have to pick the colour you like, probably won't be right, but it won't be wrong either ;-)

Getting back to Tony Press' question : "Weren't some of the Ulsters Blue?"  Almost correct, Not sure how many were involved but some factory competition cars were painted Turquoise.  The reason ?   Because it was Irene Waite's favourite colour at that time.  May be worth a thought, Tracy and Tony?   Good Luck and a Happy New Beer.   Bill in Oz
