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

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.
