I especially remember my disappointment when I opened the box of the two-tone Austin Devon with the green and pink sticker on the tabs. He told me that he had been shocked by these colors, which were so far removed from reality, and how the following Thursday, he had bought a pot of black model paint and meticulously repainted the car so that it would not stand out on his shelves. I don't remember asking him what he thought of May 68 and the vibrant colors of that hippie era. Forty years after committing his "crime," and despite my explanations about the rarity of the two two-tone versions of the Austin Devon, he showed no regrets. I remember keeping the very beautiful box (see the swinging London blog)
