If it's for the cup car replica, then bare in mind that the coupe's weren't available in Metallic colours. Only red, black, or white (non pearl). A metallic cup car would look wrong imo.

Thanks.
Yeah, I know what you mean. Although a few where painted metalic silver... the Harlow Motorsport team where all mainly silver (the inside and out shell) with blue bits. They where the best looking ones out there I think. Will post a picture later.

Do you know what white it was? It was a off-white wasnt it....?

I forgot about the Harlow cars, they did look very nice :cool:

Surely they were resprayed though, as a fair few of the coupes were? As far as I'm aware, only the three colours that I mentioned above were available to order from Renault.

I've no idea what white it was I'm afraid. Mine's an off-white, but it was originally a red shell.

Talking of the Harlow cars, why don't you replicate one of those? You could even re-create Mark Fish's one. Without the dents of course ;)

Im not sure if they where painted. The ones I remember where silver inside, but could (would) have been reshelled at some point.
Would consider doing a replica, but Iamsure he would rather not replicate another teams car, even if it did have his name on :)

Heres a picture I found today, will put some more up on another thread....

It is possible to respray the inside. It's not too much work on a car with an already stripped interior as well :D

Nice pic, I haven't seen that one before. I'm guessing it was taken at Thruxton in 1990 ;)

we had a coupe that was in silver didn't get use in motorsport and was sold as a road car with full interior, different fuel set up, coupe badge and five cup wheel brand new in the box.
the interior was phase 1 seat's with red piping that i have never that before?
