Colour Scheme for 31.B

The colour scheme will be as follows:-

Paintwork Shell Silver Grey on top half Cellon Blue on bottom half.
Leather Tan
Carpet Fawn
Headcloth Beige

The blue and grey paintwork is to make the car more easily recognisable in the garage and at the same time satisfy APM/W's requirements for reasonable heat reflection.

The tan leather is to enable seats to be interchangeable with other Siam cars. It will not be the best match with the paintwork but should not be too distasteful.

Will you please issue the necessary instructions to FS{F. Steele}/Grl.

o APM/Kt.
