My TF is yellow and black, which is not a color combination I
think of
for MGs. I've only seen it on the L type continental coupe
brochure.
My first though when I bought the TF, was that I would repaint it
in the
original red in a couple of years. Once I had it home, the
colors grew
on me and it's going to stay like it is. The shade of yellow is
paler
than most yellow so it doesn't turn out looking like a taxi.
There are enough concours cars with the normal colors that people
know
what they look like stock. My TF is a driver for fun, and the
two tone
accents the 30's styling. I'm not suggesting going for yellow
and
black,
but I think the two tone paint looks good on the T's. If you get
tired
of the combination, you can always repaint it solid then next
time.
This first picture doesn't really show the yellow, but is a good
view
with
the top down.

This second picture has better color values, but is only the side
view.

ps, It's not broken, it's just getting a ride to the Pittsburgh
Vintage
Gran Prix five days after I got it. Although the next year when
I tried
to drive out, it rode home on another tilt bed when it broke it's
crank
shaft.
