Ooh, sapphire would be lovely.

Doesn't have to be a triumph colour though. I really like the "Black Tulip" colour they used on some MGs. It was a very, very, dark purple. Perhaps in a metallic too?

BL Competitions department? Dulux Trade Gloss I should expect... :D

Julianhuey would probably know, he did that wonderful works rally car which had a similar (ish) paintjob.

1977 Manx Rally decal / sticker set. Complete No. 19 car (Pat Ryan & Mike Nicholson) set with ST Sun strip. Re-production. Original artwork cost £100 before any were made. Each set cost £150 (several years ago) and any more made will be at least that if not more. I still hold the original artwork, if anyone is interested in buying that to have sets made or altered etc.

Picture for reference.

Whether he still has them though?

Looking like it should be a good project Darren. I get the feeling you will be finished a bit before me at the current rate of progress. It's good to see more projects like these happening.
