Lloydie's track vtr (miss piggy)

Post by lloydie »

As I picked up the frame for miss piggy today and I need to send the v5 off within a few days as this will give me time to put its new engine number on it .
Now wile I'm filing out the changes I might as well do the colour too .
At the minute it's red on the v5 but I don't want it red and as I haven't gave it a second thought till now so i need to pick a colour so I ask you miserable lot for options !!!!
What Colours I don't want are
Red
Pink

I know it's a personal thing normally but I a it got a clue
So come one what colour / colours do you think I should put on the v5
And remember this won't be going back on the road so get creative :-)

What about reversing Kermit's scheme? Mainly White with black & green feature panels/stripes? :think:

Better yet, pebble dash it with gravel. Carl will help......
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

You could add fake oak beams to complete the look with the added advantage of them doubling up as frame sliders!

Put the colour down as TRATAN on the V5, that will give you some wriggle room later :lol:

LSD Rainbow?

Or you could give them a hexidecimal value? E.G; #FF69B4 would be this colour
