Does anyone have an example of TVR racing purple?
How do you mean example? Pics, or paint code etc?

I don't like flip flop paints, don't think tvr's need the 'lift'. Aren't most racing cars a flat colour, certainly rarely flip flop..?
So I vote for a standard flat or metallic paint.

I'm with NTEL & Kingfisher on this one, it's gorgeous. I just love these trick colours, especially if purple is involved. If only I had the money....

Graham,
Tuscan Challenge in factory TVR racing purple ,note the slightly different shades , Purple Pearl is the main colour and AFAIK the redder tinged shade is Tustain Purple - im sure S+D and or JG/BH will know for sure.

Definitely the closest match in terms of looks.

Lots:

CS12 - W112 BHG - engine rebuild has been completed and engine is probably already back in the car. General nut and bolt check taking place.

CS12 - W312 BFV - panels being painted whilst lots of little things are finished off.

If either one is ready for BNG then I'll bring it along. W112 BHG is looking the most likely right now.
