Caveat emptor. 

 

This is advertised on a few sites, and whilst it is undoubtedly a lovely car, it's not a real ti as stated, but a replica.

I like the grey, the stance is a bit aggressive but I am not the owner (or potential owner).

Here are a couple of what look to be real ti's for sale, one 1600, one 2002.  Both have been for sale for quite a while.

So.....maybe not factory Colorado, or maybe not a factory blue interior. Or maybe neither!

Oddly, I recall from a few years back, a thread in which a ti owner said something akin to "I have a Colorado ti with a black interior currently but which shows evidence of a navy blue interior originally." I didn't believe this, of course, because I heard neither the a.) evidence of a navy blue interior, nor b.) evidence that the evidence was original to the car! I wonder if this is the same car.

Uhm, that owner... was me.

When I bought the car, its seats were redone in nasty black vinyl. Upon stripping the interior i found original looking blue carpet against the rear kick plate. The rest was grey. I also found strips of blue vinyl under the rear seats.

Nothing concrete I guess.

Anyway. This is not my car btw. Mine is still undergoing restoration.

I will try and dig up some pictures. I know I took many of the stripping process.

Great! Thank you.

U.S.-spec cars with navy blue interiors received the multi-gray (a.k.a., salt-and-pepper) carpets up until '74, when one-piece carpet was introduced with the square taillight body. So I've never seen original blue carpeting in a round taillight '02. But I admit I don't know all the carpet color possibilities with Euro-spec cars, and a ti is certainly Euro-spec. As of the November 1968 all-models paint and upholstery brochure (shown below), only black all-vinyl and brown cloth-and-vinyl interiors are shown as available with Colorado. And Colorado, of course, was only available on ti's at that point in time.

Had even the 4 door cards of your ti been re-done in the nasty black vinyl? How about the rear parcel shelf?

Although I find it hard to believe that Colorado would be matched with a navy blue interior, stranger things have happened, and the appearance of this (above) Colorado ti with a navy blue interior needs to be noted. This assumes, of course, that the Colorado ti discussed above is a factory Colorado car.

Thanks and regards,

Steve

I really enjoy tampico. I'd buy the car if it was listed as 25,000 Canadian dollars.

[JohnH]

85,000 Euros and not a chassis number to be seen. It looks rather over "restored" to me. Same with the 1600. It seems fundamental to me to provide some proof that what you claim something is, actually is. What are they trying to hide?

[Jace]

Beautiful colour combo.

Whoa! I guess it needed some work. And it was obviously not a factory Colorado car; it looks to have been Bristol, or Polaris, both of which were generally paired with a Navy Blue interior -- if the Navy Blue interior is even original to this car. I would have thought, however, that such a high-end restoration, certainly a very costly restoration, would have returned the car to its factory color! But I suppose Colorado sells!

Thanks, Hen.

Best regards,

Steve
