Good for you Rich. No, the door jambs and the rest of the body should all
be Wedgewood blue. It is high time this color regained some popularity.
Of the 8 Alpines at the Portland All British Field Meet, 6 were red
(including mine). There are some very nice Rootes colors on both early and
late Alpines other than Carnival Red. BTW, I found a JPEG of the Japanese
Dr. No poster with the blue Alpine and the Packard. If someone with a web
page wants to post it, we could set up a link. Any takers?
