If this is the car you are referring to, then I do believe the colour is Dusk Blue? ![]() Cheers, Dave |

And I'm particularly interested to find out how wide his bonnet stripes are - I really like the look of them. Anyone know? Thanks. |

Cadet Blue is a '69 colour - too late for a Cooper. The only blues I remember for Coopers (notS) were Dusk Blue, Shadow Blue and Platinum. Dusk Blue (mixed using the original Dulux codes and colour matched to original colour on rear parcel shelf) ![]() |

It's probably worth noting that Ed himself says his former Cooper was definitely Dusk Blue. I trust absolutely what he says. ![]() |

I was lead to believe from reading the colour charts on here that Dusk blue was only used in '64. Correct?? |

Don't take the color chart dates as gospel, they didn't exactly throw the paint out on Dec 31 each year. ![]() |
