Blue Legend?

Triumph has a saphire blue color listed as being one of the color options for fuel tanks for the Legend through the parts listing, it appears to be a solid blue as opposed to the two tone blue/silver available in the UK. Does anyone know what year this color was made available on the Legend? Most of the Legends in North America appeare to be Red, Obsidian Black or Emerald Green with the two tone options being available in the UK. I found a site before in the past which listed alll the Triumph paint options by color but I have unfortunately lost the site address, does anyone have this site address?

As far as I know, the Legend appeared only in the colour options you mention, but the tanks on the classic triples are the same (tbird, tbird sport, legend and adventurer)

The Tbird was available in a saphire blue if the memory serves me correctly. As has been stated, the tbird tank is identical to that of the legend

Duh, I didn't read the description that close.
Oh well I guess that gives you an idea of what a blue one might look like.
That's not the T-Bird Agean blue though.
