British Racing Green is too pure a green to match- Bronze Green is more an "olive" green than British racing green is (BRG is more a dark Emerald green).

That Raleigh in the link looks really close to the color though-- looks like Bronze Green to me.

I actually like that bike he has built there-- it reminds me a lot of the early 20th century recreation bicycles like the old Meads, Columbias and Iver Johnsons.
