Hi everyone!
I've recently had my body painted in Speedwell Blue / Old English white, but I can't seem to decide on the interior colors. I've gathered quite a few interiors now, got a black/red Cooper interior, a black/white Monaco set, black Alfa Romeo GTV seats and still fail to picture what looks best. I'm quite set on using the Alfa GTV Momo seats, as they look period but fresh. These come in Black, Red, Tan/Brown'ish and White (rare).
I've seen a handful of images of Speedwell blue Mini's, but those tend to be MK1 coopers with period correct seats. Before I actually order any more seats, headliners, carpets, door cards, etc. etc. I was wondering if people have any suggestions and/or reference pictures of what looks great in a speedwell blue car. By no means does this car have to be period correct, it's an early 80's shell with MK1 rear lights etc. so feel free to speak your mind. For the dashboard I've currently got a new Rokee center binnacle dash laying around, but I'm not a 100% on this either. The old coachbuilt cars from places like Wood & Pickett are usually a big inspiration to customizing things properly, but none of those came in a light blue
Pic of the car in it's current state for reference:
(and yes, the person who I've bought the project from prior to painting seam welded the panels under the headlights )
