Astro Grey the original colour, the seats won't be blue forever and as for the paint colour it can always be repainted in the future.

Here is the plate, how do you tell what year model the car is? The only reason we have been saying 1963 is because that is what is on the rego papers. The other half just told me she has seen 11/63 on the wiper motor but that could have been the date of manufacture of that paticular item.

PS Didn't think it was safe to put the car no. on the internet.

Here are some pics of the windows going in, the new rubbers don't appear to be fitting properly so if anybody has some tips it would be much appreciated. It is like this in all corners of the front and back windscreens.

Old English White from an early Jaguar. Closest I could find to an old Morris colour.
