Do not ask about the color!

It is probably the brightest white on the planet and by the time I took over the project from my elder brother in 1999 I really considered to opt for a fully paintjob. White everywhere! No bit was too tiny that it virtually could escape the spray of his gun. Even the pushbutton of the dashbox-lid or the bezels of the rearlight reflectors... Everything was coated, you could've get snowblind while working on the car without shades. Well, some say it was a relict of the real 80s cal-look guise, no chrome whatsoever, no trim, shaved...
Apparently, my brother got influenced by the very second issue of the Volksworld Magazine which featured jay townsends "all white now" bug. These were the days!
However, for certain he was probably the first to deseam the roof section by shaving the rails off. Years later, Bosse Jansson followed with his '56 "Tangerine Dream" (VWM 06/90) and even improved the design at the door section area.
