as a basis for discussion, the difference between Old English White and Pale
Primrose is fairly subtle. My current project was OEW with the left front
subframe welded on from a Pale Primrose car, and except where they met up, it
wasn’t glaringly obvious. PP is a very very pale yellow, verging on ivory.
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>But really, there are only two colors you can paint a car: the original
color, and everything else constitutes a color change, whether it’s a period
factory option or metalflake purple with pearl.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>FWIW, my project got painted British Racing Green. I had no desire to drive
a white or yellow car.<BR>
