What colour do sprints come in

#1 Post by David6214 » Fri Jul 21, 2006 5:51 pm

Does anyone know off the top of their head what colour sprints were originally made in. I have a tahit blue (I think) 1850 shell and also the possibility of a brown one that I was thinking of reshelling a sprint into. Thanks<br>

I dont think I have ever seen a sandglow Sprint, and I sort of hope I never do......

Ahem, I was once the proud owner of an Allegro in Sandglow<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> I actually liked it. <br>
<br>
I also like white cars, hence Big & Little White Dollies. Must get round to telling wifey that I have another car tucked away in the garage..... kind of 'forgot' to tell her. Oh well, least it was free<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

We had a Sprint in this colour on the club stand at the NEC show in October '04. It's not my favourite colour but this car did look really, really good. It almost changed my mind, almost <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->
