- It is a great feeling that I am even asking this question. My 60 TR was originally white and so I want to return it to that state. Over the years it became Green and then Brown (ouch). I know there a

- David, I gave the old paint code for Spa White to my local paint shop and they were able to locate a formula for PPG brand DCC. DCC is a single stage urethane. I used it on my TR4 restoration. If you

- For what its worth, I've seen several LBCs painted with a "pearlescent " paint. To MY eye, that seems so wrong for an LBC. Best, Mike Moore **Planning your summer road trip? Check out AOL Travel Guid

- There is a TR3A here in SoCA with a trick paint job that looks white in some light, and light green in others. While it's not what I'd paint my own car, I find it quite attractive. OTOH, red is SOO

- At lease mine came by it naturally. It was born red with white soft top & side curtains. When I was rebuilding it in the late 1980's I did toy with apple green (Triumph racing green?) but I was going

- Actually, I believe Pearl White was before your car, and Spa White was after your car. The original factory white for a late 3A would have been "Sebring White". According to one computer scan of an

- My TR3A was originally powder blue but was painted a strange reddish orange (or maybe orangeish red) color at some time in it is life. It looks like someone slapped it with the ugly stick. It will b

- Yes, I agree that the definition of BRG was open to much interpretation by all British car manufacturers back then. I don't have a particular color code in mind, but my preference is for the darker
