Thanks for the explanation! And such an understated sense of humor you have there. Droll, to say the least! I can't help noticing that the posters on this forum are very articulate compared to the people that I am accustomed to interacting with.

WOW! That is bold! Lovely car though. As is your Merlin Purple. My partner who is too scared to drive could just about be convinced to make an exception if she had that one as a steed, I dare say! Thank you for taking the time to share pictures of your lovely vehicle with us all. I bet you feel alive when you tear up the road in that!

Thank you for that.

It's like the painted version was an afterthought, something they thought would make the interior look more modern perhaps, so they took existing wood trim from stock and just painted over them.

Good information there!
