Pappy Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 (edited) Not just black, wasn't it also a 'crinkle' finnish ( but still black) as well? Pappy Edited May 27, 2022 by Pappy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pappy Some parts but not all, remember, a lot of parts used would be what we now refer to as Government Furnished Equipment (GFE), it would come from all over the RAF supply system, it would be finished to the relevant spec for that part. The spec would say matt black but one manufacturers matt black may not be as matt black as another's (it will still be black though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canberra kid Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Going by these photos of English Electric built ones, I'd venture black is the way to go. John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vulcanicity Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Having read carefully through this thread and thought about Vampire interiors a fair bit, I am going to tentatively suggest canary yellow (make sure to get the right spec pink for the Bakelite seat though). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
