Tom and Peter, The silver from the 60's and 70's contained green tint(don't ask me why). And as silver fades (always, it is its nature it seems!) the other tints become more previlant! I am hoping that 2002 MB that I will paint the Grey Ghost with will not fade like the silvers of old (I've had both a RR and an monte C****)!
