The Spit6 / CGT6 Project

So you think you know what you're doing huh? Well here's a listing of the variables you'll have to deal with as you try this conversion.

Color Codes with Photos

Colors for the Triumph Spitfires (and now other models) complete with photographic examples of vehicles painted each of the colors for comparison.
(You may want to reference the MG page for full mfr. paint codes)

SPECIAL INTEREST 7/2005: The new toy is Alive and kicking! Special Update 3/2006 Whitey finally gets it's 6 cylinder engine, & Fuel injected at that!	Many technical projects documented here, are attached to the various cars I've restored myself over the years.
