Right so here's the deal.....
Since I'm graduating uni and getting a real job and can't really be arsed paying back the student loan just yet, I'm thinking about the possibility of giving the TR7 (or possibly even buying another shell) to do a complete ground-up bare-metal rebuild on. I'm probably going to keep the factory Pendelican White colour as nothing else really appeals to me but there is one colour I'd be interested in looking up: Jaguar Racing Green (you know, the colour Jaguar's all-too-slow F1 cars are plastered in)
I'm a big fan of Green, BRG in particular but apart from the traditional shades of green that look great on an older car, theres nothing really stand-outish enough that I feel suits the more modern (don't laugh) shape of the TR7. I'm not after a real "in your face GREEN! green", more of something that's a lot more subtle, but different thing ans seeing as Jaguar's F1 cars look AWESOME with seemingly almost every shade of dark-mid green in a rather tasteful flip-flop I'm keen to at least have a look and possibly see if it's not possible to get this colour.
I've had a look on Mr O-Boyle's wonderful TVR Colour registry site and it's down at the moment so I can't be sure if any of you out there have been brave (or drunk, stupid, eccentric etc) enough to drape your esteemed TVR in this colour but I'd like to know. If any of you out there in PH land could offer any information should you know of any road cars painted in this colour/what they look like etc. I know the paint is a Du Pont Automotive Finish (as Du Pont sponsor Jag F1) if that gives any clues.

Any info? Or am I just completely bonkers?
