Hi guys, after about six months of waiting Great models finally got in my
french Simica Berline the kit went together pretty fast about 8 hours. the instructions were good BUT :isnt there always a but; I have no idea what colors to paint. Can anybody tell me what color the factory interior was please? And what colors they came in prior to German "ownership".
I have a Azur french fighter plane this may go into a scene with.
Thanks in advance for the help.
