First, there is no field, or column in the "factory" production
record for colour code.<br>
Second, in the roughly 390 owner reports for MK II Tigers to date, none
have turned up bearing code #1.<br>
Third, the pictured car (referenced in your post and appearing in the
goggle search images) was originally code #86, but now carries a
counterfeit chassis plate.. <br>

A bit more than a third of the way down the page is the 1967, Embassy
Black 1 reference. At the very beginning of that line is a link to
G = Google, B = Bing, Y = Yahoo images. And, there is a black MK II that
shows up at each site. I'm not trying to dispute either side in the
matter. Rather I'm only pointing where the concept of a
Embassy Black 1 Mk II Tiger can come from. Accurate - or not.<br>
