Seems the the only white in 69 was Crystal white, that according to the Dulon paint codes.

Can anyone tell me what the exact colour ref was for 1969 Cooper S roof white. Crystal White 11572 Dulon & Duco Is this correct? |

Crystal white was the common colour...the sticker off the bulkhead will confirm it for your car however (if it still exists). |

Hey willy - you got other colour formulas for other years? Looking at 1963 colours - Shadow Blue and any of the whites. |

Here you go Wombat. I reckon that Shadow Blue/Platinum (ala Cooper) is great combination

Thanks willy - I have the code I was just fishing for the actual formula as on the first chart you posted - not seen that sort of info before |

Hi Wombat Yeah sorry the actual formula for some colours are hard to find. I did have some success with some paint manufactures in finding the formulas though. Glasurit do have a database of old formulas and can mix the exact colour. No such luck with DeBeer who I tend to use nowdays. Check your paint supplier to see if they can cross reference the colours in their system. Good luck. |

Slight Hi-jack Is this chart set in stone? Could your car be painted "Sky Blue" after 1964 for example? |

Not set in stone no. But gives an idea of colours used by BMC Australia between 1963 to 1967. |

Willy-- cool, where do you find these? My '66 S lists New British Racing Green on the plate--on the page above, there is British Racing Green. Is there a difference, or did they just leave off the "new" from the name of the color? Also, do you happen to have the 1970 sheet and/or a link to the web page? Thanks, bmc |

I doubt it, they didn't leave the 'New' off 'New Cedar Green'... |

Yeah, agreed. Though the one shown is almost identical to what's on the inside of my doors. I have never found a chip for New British Racing Green to see what it looks like. bmc |

I wouldn't trust the colour you can see on your screen, it'll be nothing like what the chip actually looks like in person. |
