Quick Question - can anyone tell me somehow (anyhow?) the actual colours used for the Holdsworth "team colours"?
I know they are referred to as "pumpkin orange" and "kingfisher blue" but that doesn't help me actually order any paint.
I saw in this thread that jules_b had a bike painted in them earlier this year, so it must be "somewhat current" knowledge.
I am a Brit recently moved to Minnesota in the USA, who finally got round to looking at the tired old steel framed bicycle he has carried with him for the last 30 years, only to discover that underneath it all is a Holdsworth Super Mistral. Chroming on the rear stays is long, but I don't know how to pin down a specific year beyond the rather vague late 60s/early 70s I have now. Frame head badge is long gone, alas - I expect they are like hen's teeth to find. But new paint will do it good.
Thanks in advance,
Damian
