Original Color

[Dave Cornwall]

As far as I know the VIN won't identify color.
British Heritage can research but will charge hefty fee.
Look under the dashboard with flashlight at the bottom of the shroud. Unless
the shroud was removed for the repaint there should be factory overspray of
the original color.
