Robert, not showing off

I had no idea myself until a couple of weeks ago. I had been researching this car for a long time but, as you know yourself, reference materials of the CdF version are rarer than water in a desert!!

Just a couple of weeks ago I was surfing the web looking for some more paint info and I came across Jan's personal site dedicated to Didier Pironi. I saw he had some pictures that I hadn't seen before so I emailed him and he kindly sent me the jpgs.

These 2 indicated that the CdF exhaust was:
a) a huuuge single tail pipe; and
b) white

(Note that I didn't go so far as to try and cut out the nice shape at the end of the pipe (slacker I am!) )






I LOVE that second shot!!

BTW I still don't know if/how I am going to do the race lights above the side number stickers
