There are no color codes that I know of on the MGB. From your description,
it sounds like "Bracken" which according to the Moss catalog is a "Muddy
orange". "Harvest Gold" doesn't look much like any kind of orange. Could
be "Sandglow" - like my '76 - except they didn't offer "Sandglow unti l
'76. Still possible if your's is a very late '75??
Bracken = BLVC 93, Dupont #43275
Sandglow = BLVC 63, Dupont #44565
These color codes ar on pages 68-69 of the current Moss catalog. Moss
credits Carolyn Robinson & John Twist for compiling the info.
