You are right. I'm confusing it with BMC Bermuda Blue. Had it on a Spridget.

Re: Another van.

Looks like you are making good progress.

I notice you mention a Marina van engine. Was that different from the car engine, or you just happen to have one from a van? I've got a Marina A+ in my old girl and just wondering.

Never slam the door with the keys in!

Never let anyone slam the door with the keys in the lock.

Somebody walking past helpfully slammed my door and the key fob took a nice chip out of the paint.

That would probably be a Trafalgar Blue for a '65 car. Unless it's a respray. Nice colour.
