colour?

Bad Obsession · Senior Member

All we can say at this point is that we're undecided about spots...

Hairyvike · Newbie

...call some local teenagers round.....they'll show you what spots look like.....

It has to be either candy apple red that looks like you could dive into it or it needs to be flat mid blue.

bmwmaniac · Veteran Member

British racing green would be my guess, and appropriate

UltraWomble · Newbie

Rover Nightfire Red.
Bestest car colour of evAh.

However I suspect white with BOM decals would look more the part.

MS3 · Newbie

British racing green with a white top to represent the Japanese running gear.

don't forget the red dot on the white top furious

why not pay homage to the original colour of the car? As we all know Nik is keen to keep the car as original as possible ;)

That is certainly an option.

Johny Cash was on the radio while I was driving to work this morning. This is what he said: "And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts, And I looked and behold: a pale horse. And his name, that sat on him, was Death. And Hell followed with him." Apparently this is from the bible. As we all know Binky is Deaths horse and now we know the colour.
But what colour is "pale"? According to uncle Google: "The color is often translated as "pale", though "ashen", "pale green", and "yellowish green" are other possible interpretations ." So, vomit green it is. :)

This is Project Binky. DEATH wears a cloak darker than black, and his horse, Binky, is white. So Project Binky should be white, and driven wearing a black hoodie, up, of course.

Death wears a cloak... and hell followed with him

Cloak = hoodie **

That answers so many questions about "the youth of today"

**(ok, ok, it's the closest thing I could find to a 'hoodie' emoticon!)

spots or no spots is not a real question, its a car, not a dalmatian

Landy Rebuilds · Member

Mini Spots

Anonymous · Newbie

So, white (or off-white) with black (or chequered) roof and black fender flares it is.

gben · Veteran Member

spots meaning (polkadots) or spots meaning different areas of the car...ie. white roof, BRG body, blk arches, BOM appliques on boot lid..... confuse aww

It really does need to be 3 because that is my favourite film of all time, however 3 was not standard and obviously Nic wants to keep it standard so I recon he will go with 2

Oh yeah and I was expecting you to say you had listened to 'One piece at a time' by johnny cash which is possibly quite apt

Honestly I had not thought of that. But it is strangely fitting. :)

From Sourcery. "very large and extremely white, not the offwhite which was all that most horses could manage, but a translucent, ivory white tone which Nijel felt an unconscious urge to describe as “shroud.”"
From Lspace.org "It has been said that horse breeders do not admit to the existence of such a thing as a white horse; it is pale or grey, but not white, never white. Yet Binky is truly a white horse, a large, magnificent white horse, white not as snow but as milk, because milk has more life than snow."

Isn't there a colour which is more than seventh and less than ninth, you know, the Colour of (stuff you mustn't mention), a High Energy sort of colour? You know, octa- octa- no,no can't be said, can't be written. Just is.

The Chief Smeg · Senior Member

Colour 7b you mean? Twice Four. Wasn’t that described as. A sort of purple yellowish. I think the effect was described by taking a chameleon and placing it in a piece of tartan... then lighting it with a strobe

You reckon Nik has managed to source a tin of tartan paint then?

The Chief Smeg · Senior Member

I’ve had a thought - you remember when the BAR F1 racing team (think it was BAR) did that thing where the put peoples names in the inside faces of the rear wing etc; you reckon that the car roof may get a vinyl wrap with all the Patreon names on?

If I was minded to spend my time spamming a niche(!) forum in order to promote a dubious product/malware that might earn me money, I think I'd have a bash at not coming across as an utter knob in my very first post. Maybe that way it might just duck under the moderation radar and some witless fools could follow the tedious included link. Boundless fortunes might follow.

Bye, "masonjones5711" - and thanks for popping in. No really. Always good to hear from a genuine enthusiast.

I run the RADAR very low, Mason should have ducked lower! (and/or read the thread.)
