my 70 gt6 was originally painted this shade of green and it does look kinda
like a granny smith apple.

BRG.

 Does any one know of a picture of this colour on the Internet ? >>

I saw a TR3 which the owner claimed was Apple Green at a show earlier this
summer.  I think there's a picture of an Apple Green TR3 (or TR2?) in Bill
Piggot's TR2/3 book (can't remember the name of this particular book - it's
the large size hard bound book).  I'll check tonight and respond back.

As I recall from the show car I saw, Apple Green is not dark at all....it
really resembles the color of a granny smith apple....or, I suppose, an
apple
grown in the UK of similar color if granny smiths are only USA grown!!??

Cheers....
