<VV> VV Early Model Mako/Makeover? pictures 2 of 2

[Rick Loving]

Alas, I have never had the chance to see the Super Spyder in person, but
from the pictures and literature that I have collected it has always
appeared a very dark blue with gray stripe due to the lighting.  After
reading the graphite silver description I went back to my pictures and
could "see" where it may not actually be the color that I pictured it.

Thanks, Tony for the clarification.  I hope to some day be able to see
it in person along with the other surviving GM show cars.

Blue?    last time I saw it, the car was metallic charcoal, almost a
graphite silver.   Perhaps, depending on the lighting, it might appear
blue-tinted but it's not what I'd call blue in standard light.   

It  *was* much lighter at one time Back When, before the repaint.
