Gee, all this time I thought my =E2=80=9958 TR3A was Old English White.  =
If I understand the chart and this discussion correctly I suppose it is =
Pearl White, with Spa White being the brighter/whiter choice. =20

I found the paint color discussion interesting in that I painted my 59 =
TR3A Cotswold Blue in 2001. My local auto paint store had a 59 Triumph =
color code sheet in one of their books and they scanned it to mix up my =
paint. I saw a picture of a Jag XK150 on a magazine cover a while back =
and it said it was Cotswold Blue and it looked very close to my color. I =
attached 3 other XK150 pictures and they all show colors close to mine. =
I just Googled =E2=80=9Ccotswold blue xk150=E2=80=9D to find these. =
Actually, when I type =E2=80=9Ccotswold blue tr3a=E2=80=9D into Google, =
the first picture I see is my TR3A with the white top on it. While I =
think the blue in the car ad Randall posted is attractive, I am not sure =
where they are getting Cotswold Blue from that.
