    I think micks sandman meant he doesn't know what constitutes concourse, not what the word actually means.

    Post some photos.

    Concours on one o these is rough as guts. Just GMH black painted on the chassis. Lines, clips etc added later.

    GMH chassis black is the colour. These most people seem to have concours and perfection mixed up. As hk1847 says, they were not perfect from new. My blue wb had a patch above the rear window about two inches long that never got painted.
