    I'm stumped as to why the word for garnet of a heavier granule (like the opposite of a smoother sand paper and sounds like course-er) would result in being asterisk censored. Anyone care to enlighten me? Maybe if I spelt it "kor-sir" it would be okay but doesn't really help our education does it??

    Because whomever set the naughty-word censor, doesn't appreciate the English language at all and thinks that we have to be protected from rude words such as; "might mean bottom" and and a word beginning with P that means several things, but is actually the first part of the name for a very pointy centre-punch.

    The answer to the P-word can be found in this clue - The Princess P'd her thumb on the thorn.

    I haven't tried the naughty word for a file that suggests it is of illegitimate birth (to describe it as rough might avoid the "naughty bottom" connotation) - I gave up after I correctly described a sharp extremely pointy centre-punch and got a warning for it!

    Cheers Charlie

    Hmm. So if a person went ho**** shouting for help due to a dose of ****nic and ended up sp**** of heartbeat resulting in a trip in the he****, he'd be in even bigger trouble with the AULRO mod's than he's already in?

    Yep Ian, you're right. We did stray off the topic of this very serious thread and it's entirely my fault for not being clued up enough to recognise the naughtiness of the word I was trying to quite innocently use.

    Perhaps an equal hope for 2014 for be for "a few with" ... a pinch of a sense of humour. I really don't see this thread as being one with nothing "good to say", just a little lighthearted diversion. I would think you'd be hard pressed to find someone with as positive an attitude as I have, so maybe your outlook on this thread is reflective more of your "Thanks" count than any sentiment of nothing "good to say on this site"? See you in 2014.

    Cheers
    John B

    So, back to the thread topic ...
    The original paint on the grille emblem was a flat black for the background, but there seems to be some remnant of another colour, maybe restricted to the raised lettering. Anyone know what colour the background and lettering should be on a '55 86"?

    Looks to be red on yours but I don't know anymore than that, other than:
    Fire engines had red labels;
    Some badges were a black field with silver letters;
    or a green field with yellow letters;
    or a green field with red letters.

    I don't know when the variations occurred, so I suggest a forensic examination of yours using a fine scraper of some sort,

    Cheers Charlie
