There were no HRs in purple.
From memory, the first purple in the GM-H range would be on LC XU-1s in 1970.

Correct Jim, I lived through that era and straining whats left of the brain only brings back a dim recollection.

Thats a cool colour. Thanks for the pics. Ive decided on Phonecian Turquoise Met with a dash of course flake in it. The door jams will get their first coat tomorrow, almost 3 years re-build now. All done in the shed except for the engine. Very exciting times.
