[Tigers] Forest Green

[Stu]

One of our local owners had his Tiger repainted in what he said was an
exact match to his original 86.  To my eye, it looks closer to the old
military olive drab, than any nice green.  My original 86 green looked
greener than that, but I just picked a nicer green out of the sample book
and went with that.  Still happy with the results.
