thks.  seems its not an original color per stu, but god i LOVE it.  love the
vintage colors, like this pale yellow (especially with the whitewalls), also
the mark 2 i recall seeing in a light pea green color, even the light blue
(mediteranean blue) on my tiger.

seems the tigers were only available in a small subset of the full rootes
color palette, though im too lazy right now to break out TBON to check....
