Prompted by a recent disturbing discovery...
... what colour is your tunnel?

I had a Sandglow 1500HL with a red tunnel, a white Sprint with a yellow tunnel, a blue 1300 with a Russet tunnel and a carmine 1850 with a white tunnel. I have never owned a car with a matching-colour tunnel. How common is it to have one in a different-colour?

I've never seen a car with a matching colout tunnel. They are White in both my Sprint and 1500HL!

I've never seen one with paint on. All of mine (3) have been bare metal. And therefore a bit rusty.

The only painted one I have seen was on a 1300 and that was red on a russet car, all the sprints and 1850's have been metal.

Unpainted in mine too

Unpainted in my Sprints/1850s/1300 dolly but red in richs 1300 dolly

My Carmine 1500HL also has a white tunnel.

I have had several sprints and an 1850 plus a boat anchor 1500 HL and they have all been unpainted.

Unpainted in mine and just starting to corrode very lightly on the external side of the thing behind where it attaches to the bulkhead, must get some acid in about at that, followed by the Waxoyl.

My Russet 1500 has a blue tunnel

Red tunnel on a carmine Toledo.

Grey on an ice blue Toledo.

French blue on french blue (redtop).

No tunnel on FWD.

Have not explored honeysuckle Toledo yet in that area, but will be very soon.
