    And then there are the stories about Frank Bough......

            love it. its a right luxobarge. does good mpg, all the mots, loads of history, all solid original body and floor. alls it needs is some interior trim and a paint job.

    Difficult to say for certain as digital photography makes colour recognition pretty subjective. My opinion would be Pimento red, others may disagree?

      Hi Stephen
      
      Pimento red does not match,
      
      could it be Vermillion?
      
      if i take the car to a paint suppliers do you think they will have a paint match for a car of this age
      
      Cheers

        my local paint shop have a hand held paint reconishon device, and if its to do a match they even make it look like the rest instead of as it was when new.

            Well, I was going to say Topaz, from memory, but then I thought, huh, is there such a Triumph colour?
            I don't think I should say Topaz just in case it makes me look stupid, but then I looked at that colour list,
            and Topaz IS listed, so I will now say, I think it is Topaz!
            
            Colour memory is an odd thing.
            
            ps. NICE looking car.

              I think it's too red to be Topaz.
              
              Topaz is more orange than red - I used to own a Topaz Spitfire.
