1972 John Player Norton Blue

Hi All, 

Boredom is setting in and I have decided to smarten up my 650.

It is standard slimline without the chrome tank badges and is currently metallic silver, but it needs a respray.

I'm drawn to doing it in the blue and white of the 1972 JP Norton's, but searching hasn't come up with any suggestions as to what this colour is/was.

Also was it a white or 'nearly white' contrast?

Anyone have any ideas?

The stripes will probably be 'Norman' White...He's be able to tell you the blue too..The other option is to find an old Players No.10 packet and colour-match your own Flying Fag packet.

for the suggestions, will give Norman a call. Richard the 1972's were players No.6's, it was the 1973-on and road versions that were No 10's! As for the white - very droll!
