I hate to
in again, but nice looking L80E Julian, as I'd seen the one in your Avatar big somewhere else on the www!
Hi Tom,
Thanks very much
I do like the L80E white - it looks pretty clean even when it's dirty. I'd really have preferred yellow, given a choice though.
Best,
Julian
Hey Julian - I'd
really have much preferred a Marathon or Alaska Blue Metallic back in the day when I bought mine in 12/75 - still would!
But mine was originally L80E, repainted Sahara Beige, then Gold
before I got it in late 75 (2 repaints in 1st 3 years - must've been a first color reject - WTF !!??
), then I did a Copper Met. repaint 8/76, then a rustoration (few small bubbles) in 5/80 to the current "tarmac camouflage" Anthracite Grey Metallic (at least it had blue pinstripes & bluish undertone to the dark grey metallic!).
After checking loss of value for non-original color restos & talking with George H & lotsa folks here - I went through a serious desensitizing process of looking at pix of really nice L80E's to adjust my head to having it while!
Yours was one used in my therapy!
.... the wife still hasn't come around yet, but she grasped the end value thing right away!
This is going back to L80E now .....
