Bored at work, so trying to decide what colour to paint my 109 IIa.

It’s currently Limestone and seeing as my dad’s 109 is also Limestone (which he’s owned for 29 years now) I think I’m over that colour and want something different.

I’m keeping it period correct colour wise so here are my otherchoices:

Marine Blue:

Bronze Green: Kinda leaning away from this one because it can get super hot in summer and what with having no air conditioning and all...

Burnt Grey:

Poppy Red: Problem with this though is that it fades pretty quickly.

Mid Grey:

I’m kinda leaning towards either the Marine Blue or Pastel Green as I think they’d look pretty slick with a brown canvas top or limestone Safari Roof.

I would like to see if I can build something similar to this for the summer months and then just throw the hard top back on during the winters:
