The rear shot on the blue car really works in 2 tone, great lines

Neil, you are actually quite right........the silver sills and also the wheels "all" silver work so much better

Yes it did look a lot nicer when you had it the one that got away??? just wonder did you use a solid silver or a metallic as its hard to tell from the pictures.
Vixen will stay red though.
May even do the hard top i picked up for the 3000s in silver will just have to wait and see.

Its nice to see a "dad" taking an interest in his sons car. How does he get away with that number plate, surely thats illegal.

Rojo Rouge over Ford stratos silver.
It had a lovely salmon pinkish hue and was faded and old so needed polising every week.

Thats why Valerio had it painted i think.

Really like the two tone, certainly works

Now I can see the car back to back with other 2 red two tone one I'm almost swaying towards the all silver vixen wheels vs the wires.......the wires looks right on pale blue but it maybe my eyes after a long day at work

Nice job

Take it as flattery I loved your old car the first time I saw it.
And I know you did as well
The Red I will have to check as she was red already however I know its a period Red and I think Ford Radiant Red the same as my 3000S
I hope so as I am a tight G** and will save on touch up paint
