    Hi All,

    I've been given a summer project of painting a GUV back into its Newpapers Livery, (rail blue with the word "Newpapers" down the side). I'll first have to reattach the rain strips first, so have a bit of time to go..

    Consequently, I'm trying to find the paint scheme for the "Newspapers" Livery of a GUV, I've had a quick look on the NRM's archives, and on barrowmore, both to no avail.

    Maybe a a bit of a long shot, with very few images of the livery that i can work from otherwise, Does anybody know where I could find such a document, or have one they could scan for me to peruse?

    Thanks a lot!

    P.S heres a low res picture of what the livery looks like!
