Vauxhall Cresta Versailles Green and Black

Harking back to the late 1950s and early 1960s, the British made Vauxhall Cresta was a UK effort to emulate some of the extravagant designs coming off the motor production lines in the USA. Masses of chrome, elongated tail-fins and bright colours were the order of the day, although the UK car industry did not go the whole hog on any of these fronts! Here we see the Vauxhall Cresta registered from its early days as RVG 284 and decorated in an attractive black and light green two-tone colour scheme with the wrap around chrome framed windows and wide chrome radiator grille. A grey dashboard, black steering wheel and whitewall tyres complete the picture.
