Does any one know what colour was used on the 3.8 seat shells?

It's always easier after you post because the nice Similar Topics box down the bottom gives you 5 good leads..

Which is a tad frustrating because you don't see it until after you post..

The original was BS381C 694 Dove Grey. For our seats, GB Classic Trim used the modern replacement code RAL7030 (stone grey) which came out well.

This was also used on the hood frame and was a very close match to some of the original paint that was still present once it was stripped back.

Note that the back part was not painted.

Same colour on:
