Re: Any '56 400's out there painted solid Scottish Heather (K)?

My car was restored...(not by me), and of course two toned, but to me, the repaint in base coat/clear coat, looks too modern and "plastic". I am also not a fan of base/clear paints, as they inevitably chalk and flake. I paint cars, so I am constantly seeing this first hand.

While I really like the two tone, I have toyed with the idea of returning it to it's single color paint scheme. Does anyone know of a surviving sold Scottish Heather 400, or perhaps have a photo of one?

Although not really a primary concern to me, I assume that returning the car to it's factory paint scheme, would add to it's value?

Thank you for the factory ad showing the red car and yes, it does look a mile long!
