It looks like stucco. The kind of orangey stucco
houses in Arizona are finished in. It does not
look coppery at all. It's a very bright color,
not like brown eggshell at all. It's unusual, but
not unattractive. And it is very difficult to
reproduce accurately in a photograph (heck, even
my glacier blue car is hard to reproduce). If
I had a car that was originally alamo beige, I
would definitely repaint it that color. It's
extremely rare and would be the focus of attention
at any get-together of MGA owners.
