Does anyone know off the top of their head what colour sprints were originally made in.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......

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=
