I can't say if it's genuine, but it certainly bears a strong resemblance to
the illustration in my TR4A SPC (which of course doesn't show the color).
And while Ted has been known to stretch the truth on occasion, I'm inclined
to take his word for it.
Could be mistaken, but my understanding is that the "tropical" TR2-4 fan
was
an aftermarket accessory, made in Australia or some such, not in the UK by
Standard-Triumph (though they may have fitted it to some cars, on request).

Whether or not 211986 is a "tropical" fan, it is a TR4A fan as Randall
notes. It was also used on the Vitesse 6 and 2L, early GT6 and 2000 sedan.
