Marine Blue/Snow White? That's my guess- a friend had one in `67.

Steve,
Looks like it may be indigo blue. Similar to my fathers Cooper S but a little darker. Do you have any photos in direct sunlight? Indigo blue has a bit of a green tinge to the blue if that helps. The other similar colour is baltic blue but that is what Ricks car is painted in and it is a little lighter. Roof with that colour was snow white, like 66BMC. G

nah, indigo blue is purple, I've got a couple of friends with MK2's that are indigo blue, looks nice, but a long way from that. I dunno if that car is an original colour.....

One of my photos taken at the QLD mini muster on 13 June 2004.
Owner is Andrew Williams . Car won best modified round -nose
Color from memory is marine blue which looks more of a grey than in the picture.
Tried to read details on board in original photo for details without success.
Lot of nice minis at that muster.

Just a thought, try contacting the QLD mini Club.
They may be able to put you in contact with him. He would have had to give them his contact details when entering his mini for the muster

mmmmmm shiney, looks immaculate. Hope your body is 100% straight if you want that colour, it will magnify all imperfections .
