Wow!! That's exactly the colour I want to paint the Victor TF. I have
collected about two dozen pictures of early Bugatti Type 35s and, even
allowing for the difference in photo colours and such, they appear to be
each a different shade of blue. Even the colour codes I found for "Teal
Blue" and "French Racing Blue" were all different. This BMC "Iris Blue"
is just about perfect to my eye, so that's what I'm going to paint it.
Thanks again to Paul Tegler for the website that gave me the codes and
thanks to Steve Storey for the picture of his beautiful Iris Blue MGB on
Paul's site:
