Pat:

The colour chips arrived yesterday and today I went to see what I could
get as for as modern matches go. Well, it took all of 3 minutes at the
Acklands-Grainger body-shop supply branch.

Here is the mix for MG Primrose Yellow, TR Pale Primrose, and Jaguar
Pale Primrose. They are the same colour. All have the DuPont number
8319A and code BLVC251. This colour is available in Centari (acrylic
enamel). The mix (for a pint) is:

tint    tinting non-cum   %

758S     24.0    24.0    4.9
716A     25.0     1.0    0.2
732A     27.0     2.0    0.4
705A     32.0     5.0    1.0
738A     64.0    32.0    6.8
700A    384.0   320.0   65.8
756A    486.5   102.5   21.0

Your chip of 'Rover Pale Yellow' seems to be the closest - at least to
my eye.
