What's that colour, a light shade of green, that early (1958) Minors were painted please? Not very common.

If it's original it should be Sage
Porcelain is later (mid '60) ............ lovely colour

the only thing that worries about the chart is Fiesta Yellow doesn't look yellow at all, but the other colours are good as far as I know.

Thanx for the replies, sage seems to fit, unfortunately I can't download the link Roger, but appreciate the thought.
