Hi Dave, no this car has always been black, I think it was about the 4th one they built. Drove it today and seemed a nice set up but on roller barrels it really hesitated and "chugged" on a very light/trailing throttle. It was so bad that I had to dip the clutch to settle it for a second. Apparently, this is systematic of the roller barrel set up?

If I kept the throttle on, it went right through the rev range without a problem though.
