Thanks for confirming it was never a factory trim color. What's even strang=
er is Moss lists it for: TR2, TR3, TR3A, TR4 & TR4A.

I've made a lot of kits in it as it is a nice color... Just not a "correct"=
 color.

Don=92t know who dreamed up that colour variant. Seems as much a myth as th=
e statement I saw some years ago in a high profile magazine that the factor=
y floors in Coventry were all hard packed earth and no concrete anywhere.
Anyway, according to my cherished Production Control Code Books, Honey Tan =
never existed, nor was it ever offered as available to special order.
 If Moss publications in the States are as inaccurate as the ones they used=
 to offer in the UK, nothing would surprise me that they=92re now inventing=
 colours.

The trim codes in the brown/tan family that I can find are: chestnut, tan, =
light tan, new tan & biscuit.

Thanks
