    Thanks. I figured it was a body colour, just didn't know what colour.

    an up date on the progress.  This Car was STOLEN and robbed of a lot of parts... I have found and replaced the missing parts with nos. or factory orig. parts..  the shop doing the work has been behind me 100% in putting it back as close as we can. I am very thankful for  them... we used the orig. window sticker and some photos of the car that were taken on the first day of ownership. [ orig owner car !] any detail we could keep has been preserved !! I hope you enjoy the photos as much as I do !
