My BN1 is Healey Blue with dark blue leather interior (local shop) white
piping on seats. dark blue tonneau, white top (should be Dark Blue I
think). Black Armacord (think the trunk armacord should be blue too)
As an aside a couple of books I have read said red was the most popular
color for the early cars, but it doesn't seem to be the most popular color
for the survivor/restored early cars.
Another aside, recently looked at a list of paint codes that listed two
different Healey Blues for 100s. I can't find the list, but it think the
early color was described as Ice Blue and the later color as Ice Blue (or
Healey Blue) Mettalic.
Were the early Ice or Healey Blue cars non-mettalic, or was that just
meaningless change on the color name? My car was bare metal re-done so
provides me no clues that I can find.
