Do you dream in colours? If so, do they harmonise, or clash with one another? Back when mind-expanding drugs were in vogue, psychedelia ruled. The wilder the hues, the better the trip, as it were.
Long-time VW and Porsche owner, Paul Leyton, harbours no such motives, but he does love the reactions he gets to his Orange Blossom Special, with its Purple Haze upholstery.
Don’t be fooled by the external oil filler cap, Paul’s car started life as a 1976 2.7-litre 911. At one time, it was on its way to becoming a Singer Vehicle Design wannabe, but when it arrived in the UK from the USA it was resplendent in silver, endowed with a factory-fitted tea-tray spoiler and Fuchs wheels. Clearly, nothing like what it looks like here.
Long story short, Paul bought the car through Facebook Marketplace as an unfinished project, dismantled, but with the bodywork all done, the dramatic orange paint job in place and some mechanical modifications made.
