#1 Colour combination 1961 OTS

Post by Desmo » Thu Oct 27, 2016 4:10 pm

Hello,

resently I have seen a Certificate of a 1961 OTS with recorded colour combination:

Exterior Cream
Interior Light Blue
Soft Top Blue

Was the color shade of the interior a really light blue one and was the carpet colour in this combination blue ? Many thanks for your information.

Best regards
Desmo

What jaguar called "light blue" is actually closer to a light grey colour . It is an unusual combination with cream, and personally I would not expect it to be a very attractive combination . The blue hood, however, I think will go well with the cream

If you take a look on the CMC Jaguar web site and the restoration on Chassis no 15 you will see the light blue interior...
