I'm not going for a concours restoration exactly. I will never compete
with the car but I have always felt that if I am going through the
trouble to do a complete bare metal restoration why not put it as close
to original as I can?
With that said my car does have a 1275 and ribcase transmission, that
alone would hurt it if it were "concours".
So the question still remains. Old English White/Red interior OR Iris
Blue/(Blue or Black Interior).
My guess is that my son will be happy no matter what color it winds up
but I cherish his enthusiasm at four years old :-)

Are you going for a concours restoration?
If not, do what you want :)
I have an Iris blue (aka speedwell blue) Sprite.
It had white seats for a while but now they are 2 tone white and navy
blue.
I like it!
Concours it ain't.
