[6pack] Need your opinions, please!

============================
     We often take our freedoms and way of life so much for granted.  So let 
me take the opportunity to thank all of the men and women in our armed 
forces, their families, and veterans for the dedication and sacrifice made 
on behalf of this great country.  You all deserve much more than what is 
often provided in support of you and your families. But the deepest respect, 
pride and gratitude of the American people will never waver.  Let us 
especially honor those who faced the gravest of dangers and bravely gave 
their lives in service to the people of the United States of America. 
Memorial Day is a solemn day for us to reflect on those sacrifices and say 
"Thank you."

Listers,

Without going into the aggravating 'how' and 'why' details I would greatly 
appreciate opinions of fellow enthusiasts about the color of my freshly 
painted tub.  The car is not being built to an original standard but I did 
want a particular color that was representative of the traditional British 
Racing Green.

Best laid plans were "Murphy-ized' and what I now have is an unusual color 
for a 250 that I am heavily biased against because of what the expectation 
was and my years of TR ownership.  I don't hate the color but everyone who 
has seen the car, all non-enthusiasts who have no real basis for comparison, 
thinks I'm crazy for considering repainting it, or at least attempting to 
use a blue tinted clear to soften the green.  It does remind me of the 
lighter racing green used by Lotus in the 50s, 60s and 70s.  All other body 
panels are still in primer.

So, please take a look http://www.triumphowners.com/231 and give me your 
valued opinions, be it "absolutely ghastly" or "too cool".   Right now I'm 
on the fence.

Thank you all!
