  1. Hi Guys, My first post here, I’ll be posting the restoration progress so far up here soon. I’m restoring a 1966 triumph spitfire. Irish built car and I cannot figure out the correct original colour. I have a good sample of it behind the dashboard and the paint is metallic green. Is anyone aware of a light/medium metallic green from triumph from this time period? So far, my best guess is the green found on the Aston Martin Zagato. The commission tag says 1 for the paint code. I am not sure if this is the original tag or has been replaced and the number copied wrongly. BMH cannot provide original specification as records weren't kept for Irish built cars. If it is not a standard Triumph paint colour, is anyone aware of how triumph would mark these commission number plates? If anyone has any info or opinions that’d be greatly appreciated
