Hello all,
I would very much appreciate any details on the original body colours, and matching interior trim colours, for the 1948 Rover P3. This is for a project that I'm working on regarding a P3 model car. Many thanks, in advance. Frank.

Thanks Mike, a big help. Not sure what colour 'sundown' is, though. Frank.
