I believe the Speedster sedan that was in Warren is the one owned by the Classic Car Club Museum in Hickory Corners, Michigan: maroon with black fenders. A Mr. Steinman (I think) was the previous owner, but he donated it to the museum in the 1980s.
The other one is owned by Harry VanIderstine: can't remember the colors, but I recall kind of a tanish two-tone color.

Regarding the 7-34 Speedster Victoria that has been pictured in this Forum: the original color was a medium-to-dark green. The late Frank Low, early CCCA member, owned the car ca. 1960. Eventually as is well known it ended up in one of the large western collections, and there the car was painted in the hideous color scheme seen in the photo. Frank Low told me about how he came to buy the Victoria, but at the moment I do not recall the details well enough to put down here. I have a B&W photo he took right after he bought the car.

I have to agree with you on the color selection. When Skip Marketti told me that the Nethercutt Collection was restoring the car, I couldn't wait to see it. When I got to Warren in 1999 and saw it, my heart sank. Not Skip's fault, I'm sure.
