Hi,
Is Malmo green a rare/unique colour?

MattE mentioned my Malmo Green Deluxe. I've decided to do a complete restoration on it to do away with the nasty paint job it was subjected to by one of its previous owners, and the turret job done to arrest rust in the gutters. The paint job proper seems to have been done on a Saturday afternoon and is able to be removed in places with one's thumb nail. Fortunately the underside of the parcel shelf seems to be mostly in a pristine state and that'll be from where I will seek to get a colour match.

Aussie Brian could I get a copy of that photo for the colour database please? Hanra would you mind sending one of yours as well? I don't have any pictures of Malmo Green minis as yet.

You might find it is rare due to it being used on Minimatics? I remember reading this somewhere but I can't remember where I read it!!!! :?
Gotta stop cooking in those damm aluminium pots :lol:

You might be right AussieBrian. I know someone that recently had a Malmo Auto.
