Welcome to the forum!

You're correct that your car should be Empire Green and wise to verify this point. A later re-spray in Almond Green (not an 'official' colour until 1960 or 61) is always a possibility. The two shades look quite similar... until put side-by-side, when the differences become obvious!

In the meantime, how about posting some pics of your Minor...? We always welcome them and I, personally, am biased in favour of split-screen cars! :lol:
