On the basis of the GPLEA Cooper skin, I made a 512x512 pixels skin of the Jacky Ickx’s n. 32 car he drove on his first F1 race in the G.P. of Italy in September 1967.
There was already an Ickx’s car skin with n. 32 available, but it was 256x256.  
To use first back up your ick12a.mip file in the coventry folder, then replace it with this.

Thanks for this!
Grand Prix Legends is a drug. And I'm an addict. Again.

Thanks! :wave:

It is an interesting thesis. I rather think, on the basis of the few coloured pictures available at www.jacky-ickx-fan.net, it was dark green. Certainly darker than the GPLEA green colour. But this is true for all GPLEA work coopers, and Ickx had a work car. Also the model kit manufacturer Tenariv, seems more in favour to the green colour! ;)

Yes, all the GPLEA coopers skins looked like military vehicles, rather than a darker green they really wore

thanks a lot.

I think the "real" cooper work team color was even darker green than your, mixed with tiny touches of dark blue/dark grey.

  here some pics with quite all the color range corrections of red/blue/green, that make evidence how dark it was.At various racetracks,Kyalami, Zandvoort,Spa, Bugatti, Silverstone.
