Clarendon grey & Birch grey were both used in 1957 so it could be either of those. The BL paint codes are GR6 for clarendon and GR3 for birch.
I'm not sure what shade of grey they are but I'm sure that someone on here will be able to help.

If you look at this list is shows the colours with the matching interiors.

I had not spotted that before and how had they left Black of the list, but at least most are listed.
