gogs56 Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 Can any body tell me if the 76 OSSA MAR was available with a black frame? I am starting the restoration on one and it is painted black. All the pictures I have seen seem to show a silver frame. Either way can you advise the paint type/ colour? I'm also after speedo and lights.

trialsrfun Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 (edited) As far as I know all MAR models had a silver frame, the first TR77 had a black frame which changed to green when the Verde (green) model was introduced. Are the upper shock mounts level with the lower side panel screws on your frame, on the TR77 they are near the top screw.

woody Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 As above replies, silver. The old Ford Silver Fox colour used in late 60s early 70s is a very good match as they weren't a bright silver colour. They don't look good they are done bright silver 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogs56 Posted March 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 Thanks for the replies and thanks to Woody for identifying a paint. Yes the upper shock mounts are level with the lower side panel screws on my frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
