GTV-6 colors



No, not metallic BRG like the Alvis eater from ARA, the real ones.

Joe Kollmann has ended up with the GTV-6 recently owned by our departed Nuvolari. Yes. He is the grand nephew or something of the Flying Mantuan, and his apartment was a shrine to Tazio; I was there. First thing he does when he goes home to Mantua, is take yellow roses to The Grave.

So, Joe K. has this red '84 GTV-6 which used to have the snake up the right rear all the way across the window, and the body sides below the horizontal trim piece are painted silver, reminiscent of race cars in the late '70s, I think, but I was out of touch with this world in S.E. Asia back then.

Were GTV-6's ever factory painted red, with silver along the bottom 1/3 of the body between the wheels? Joe K. is ready to fire up his paint gun and make it right, but if silver is right, we'd like to know.

Thanks,
Joe C.
