Hi Laura - It was originally Carmine red, but is now a brighter shade.
It's one of those 10 foot paint jobs - You know - looks pretty good at
10 feet but the closer you get the more flaws you see. I can live with
that for now. The interior is black (houndstooth) ans ia in very good
shape. Haven't decided on a name yet, we're sort of waiting for the
drive home to see if anything presents itself. I'll try to have some
shots posted somewhere next week.
See Ya
Mark
