Often these were photos from pre-production prototypes. The COLOR SCHEMES shown here lean toward those used on production-line units. However, it is not unreasonable to assume that assembly sequences may have changed in mid-production for any particular model. Use of PAINT SCHEMES shown in promotional literature and manuals is perfectly acceptable, depending upon the preferences of the restorer.
