Love this… One of the very biggest decisions any car builder has to make is what colour the finished work is going to be. Sometimes, it’s because you happend to have a few pots lying around, but more likely you’ll have a parti cular reason for deciding on your chosen hue. In Mel Garrard’s case, it’s because he wanted to mimic the colour milk goes when you put it on Coco Pops. Well, it’s a Pop, right? Makes sense to us, and even if it’s not the first thing we thought of when we clapped eyes on the car, it sure is sweet…
