Paint it whatever colour you like... If it's not an SL/R, you've got no reason not to.

I would have an Orchid Metallic Torana any day if that was the factory colour. I dont think i would just paint one that colour up front but would love to have an original one. A bit like Strike Me Pink. Lovely car to have as original but i wouldnt paint one that colour for the sake of it either.
