    Superb color combo. This was the original colors of my SWB ..but never had the time to repaint it this way. Visually I remember there is a fairly original SWB in this color, as well I think the one Gooding did not sell few years ago at Pebble Beach. Also I remember a 250 PF in this color combination in the U.K. And yes look a little bit greenish, like the inside of the oyster the name is referring to.
    I am sure good shops could help you, like Paul Russel or Cremonini to name few, as I am sure they have done repaint in this color.

    Ed, I'd prefer it over your original choice of grigio. How about a black roof? Red would be a good color for the roof too, but it might look too much like HRH Soraya's Superamerica--don't know if you'd mind that. Maybe the shop that painted 0717SA can help you with the formula. I think it was a shop in Glendale that restored it. I can't remember their name or if they are still around. Maybe someone can help with that.

    Appreciate any help

    Seeing these pictures makes me wish I had refinanced my house so I could have bought Mike Manion's PF Coupe, years ago when it was on the market!
