Hi TUCK3r - a polite suggestion; hope you don't mind or get offended as that's not my intent. Any chance you could slow down a bit with your typing and use a few capital letters and fullstops? :) It may be quick for you to create the post but if you want oldies like me to understand your messages without having to read and re-read them two or three times then you will need to follow the basic rules of grammar.

Elmo is the best example of scarlet o'hara paint you will see, it is a funny colour though. my mini is this colour, some say it's red, some say it's orange. but it is a cool colour. however, your photo doesnt look like it is SOH. try polishing part of it up and see what it looks like.

this is my mini before i started to neglect it... (eg when it lived in a garage...) it makes me sad to know what kind of state he is in now :?

it's in low light so it looks pretty red here

Winabbey :oops: :oops:
i will try better with grammar, as i was'nt really trying when i typed the post i take your suggestion on board thank's

To other people that replyed to the thread i think it probaly is scarlet ohara red, as i had a look in the boot on the inside and its a very similar red to docs jet red. So i think it must of faded badly over time.Thanks for the replys and taking a look at the thread and answering my question.

Cheers TUCK3R
