Playing around with GIMP software.
Just getting colour ideas.(I still like the black.)

Yellow or the blue. Black or any dark colour is really hard to see when the car is that low. You will end up putting stripes on it so people see you.

Nice choice of car :)

Any chance you could do a white one?

Tim's is white

And Jon Regan has a green one.

Sorry Al.
I tried to do a white one,but my expertise is a little lacking!!
Thanks jeffw.
I cant see it in anything but black for now.
But a couple of white stripes sounds good.

No worries James - tried playing around with the image myself but didn't even get close to your efforts. White may just be a flash in the pan - I've always liked red or orange, maybe yellow. I reckon I have a couple of years before I make that decision though.

jeffw - yes, I keep a close eye on Tim's blog, and have done for years. I see he's now getting the bodywork on.

Hi James,

i really like it in black, or maybe in graphite metallic. Looks very cool to me.

Just stumbled over your blog, I built a Fury in 2007. Best of luck, Ian.

Thanks Ian.
I always liked the Furys.Very nice.
Do you still own it?
I like the black too. There is a very nice graphite metallic mojo on the web.
His blog is called "mad inventions", I think.
Cheers James

Hi James,

Yes, I've still got the R1 Fury, it's a blast. Going to Switzerland and Italy in June in it, can't wait for the tunnels!

Good luck with the build, Ian
