I'm planning to do a bit of a custom job on one of my MKII's. With Yellow being my favourite colour it was an obvious choice but I didn't want just a stock Yellow with normal decals (which has probably been done in anycase) so I took some inspiration from an old F1 car from Jordan Racing ( EJ10). I met Eddie Jordan once, but that's a story for another time. Anyway I've been designing the decals which I'm hoping to have made, just thought I'd share them with you!!!..........and get your input!!!

This is not necessarily the finished design for the Toptube, but It'll be something like this!?!?!?!

I'll update this thread as the build goes along but for now......

Nice idea    Artwork looks good too

Me Too!!!...........A friend of mine runs a bar and got it as a promotional prize to give away..........he gave it to me!!.......I've also left mine boxed, planning to keep it that way too.

Thanks for your encouraging comments gentlemen.....they go a long way .

Sounds a good  Idea archie.Not  that  I am knocking  your  idea but  I would  like to see  one  with the McLaren colours maybe have  the  colours on the  frame red silver and  black  with Mclaren Grifter Stickers .

Now, that would look nice!!  

We could get Lewis Hamilton to  ride  it      

only fair that it gets unveiled at brooklands then eh ???

It'd be nice to do the whole grid!

I did think about doin the Alonso's Renault (powder blue with yellow skyways) or does anyone remember the 1977 John Player Special? (probably showing my age there!!) Black 'n'Gold, always a nice combination.
There's so many...........I think they'd all look nice. I suppose everybody has a favourite race team/colour.........I say we do one each and meet up at the Raleigh Rally next year for a race............Now there's a thought

if i was to choose it would have to be mclaren as it is just down the road from where i live

If you could get the Decals made...........would you do it?

JPS Sounds great  

I think the orange and blue of the seventies gulf racing team would look good.

The black Super  grifter isnt  far  from  being a jps as it  is.

Don't tempt me!!!  I must finish what i've got first

You're not wrong there!.........It'd be an easy conversion wouldn't it!!


OR


Both Classics

Go on Hoarder give  it  ago,I would  prefer the  McLaren one  but your  more  for the  jps and  probably have  a choice  of  bikes to do it to so go for  it.

I remember in the late 70's my local used car lot having a mk2 capri jps for sale. Not many of these left now.
