[FC] MuseumBrier Paint Question

[peter koehler]

Greetings from Slippery Rock, PA! Just wanted to say Hi! 
and give you folks a brief update on my MuseumBrier 
project. The MuseumBreir is a 1964 Standard six door 
Greenbrier that I recently bought from Tim Colson. When 
purchased is was more like a puzzle than an operational 
FC. Tim gave me a tranaxle and an engine assembly separate 
from the actual van. Yesterday several members of the 
Keystone Corvair Club pitched in and helped me get the 
powertrain installed at Barry Musselman's Corvair Garage 
and Club Hangout in Martinsburg, PA. Last night I towed 
the 'Brier back to SR and Monday it goes to the painter.

The question for the group concerns the paint job. Right 
now the van is two tone green. Yeah, I know it's called a 
Greenbrier for a reason... but I need to repaint it before 
we start the ten-city CPF (Corvair Preservation 
Foundation) road show in April. Doug Musselman de-coded 
the ID plate on the van to tell me that it originally was 
light gray with a white stripe. I was thinking of painting 
it white with a red stripe and red steel wheels. Does 
anyone on the list have a picture of a light gray and 
white FC? I would like to thank Kent Sullivan for his 
research and his great website with FC info. Makes it a 
lot easier to tell the painter just what color of white or 
red or gray that I want!

I also would like to find a set of correct dog dish 
hubcaps (chrome) for the truck. Are any of them hiding out 
there somewhere? More updates to follow as I prepare for a 
7,000 mile long road tour with my traveling billboard for 
the Corvair Hobby and Corvair FC's in particular. - Pete
