HGE Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Please, just need to know the color of the throttle handle of a Mk.Vb Spit! I can't find a single color picture. Thanks, Henry Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ron Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I always paint mine White so they stand out. In reality I am pretty sure it was plain old boring black. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Slartibartfast Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 (edited) Yep, plain boring black, though there is a finish difference. Polymer hand-hold portion is flat while metal is semi-gloss. Edited August 22, 2007 by Slartibartfast Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thom Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 If you're after a bit of interest, I've seen pics (not at home right now, otherwise I'd have a look through my files for one) which show light-coloured tape wrapped around the controls, I suppose for better grip in sweaty situations. I imagine it would be cricket-bat tape, or whatever people used in those days for wrapping cricket bat handles. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
