    Re: 928CDU update !

    Hi Franklin,
    Thanks ! I had it sprayed in the early 80s.. from memory only I think it’s laurel green .. now when I Googled it earlier, there was a ford and triumph version and I recon the ford one looks closer. Often described it as BRG but it’s a bit light for that.

    Cheers .. Richard

      928CDU now classified as Historic and has attended a couple of local classic car meets, including one organised by the local TSSC (Triumph Sports Six Club), made very welcome & generated much interest ..

      Think I posted this on FB, but thought I should duplicate on here for the record.

        Thanks Richard, the pic's already "on the record" and certainly BRG is a much darker shade...though there reputably several version of it !

          Hi DC, I recon Ford Laurel Green or Brooklands Green, but really can’t remember which …

            I think Laurel is the most likely, I think Brooklands is darker and very close to BRG

                My TVR 'S3' is Brooklands Racing Green and very much darker. As DC says BRG can be various shades dependant on individual companies interpretation!
