I can't and won't say for sure about whether the two colors match, but
#25, known as Conifer green around 1967-8, was earlier known -- at least
in the U.S. -- as Triumph green.

Or be like Ford, who called paint code (whatever) on my '91 Explorer
"Deep Emerald Green Clearcoat Metallic". On other models and/or more

as Jewel Green Metallic (and other names, for all I know). Always the
same color, though!
