Just to confirm if yours is def 1990 and red then it's a Flame Red (same as mine). Do with it whatever you see fit...after all it's about what pleases you!!!

If it's something of an investment then you want to restore it to std. You are more than welcome to pm me for deets of what OEM was back then in '90 as I'm just the 2nd owner of mine and it's unmolested!!

Good luck with the progress and post us all some pics 😊

The most value would be to restore it back to original including the colour.

Why not have it as red and put on a wrap of whatever colour you want that way you get the best of both worlds.

Only 4 years later and I'm brining Frank the Min home. The restoration didn't go quite as planned but I do at least have a stripped out car and a few new panels that I bought. In other good news I managed to buy the custom made "Spits" (not sure if that is the right name?!) so that should help me.
