Of course he didn't, they went and raced round his garden at Versailles, the vehicules had far less horse power then of course. . . .

Maybe he tried with a 8 horses powered royal coach... however, the people would let him win...😅 1st french king represented with blue clothes is Louis XIII but nothing to do with racing blue. It was a dark blue, wheras the racing blue takes origins in the early 20th century racing cars rules. What i meant is despite the basis (english typical car with sort of racing green : unsure what it is), i want to contrast and provide a 70's french sports look. But underneath it's a 55 Valencia blue original paint (shame it's been pained green with that beautiful blue)...😢 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
