Colour Code

Post by Some S Man »

Hello all,

I have a 1980 leyland mini, its original colour is a sky blue, im not sure what exactly its called. iv seen a few colours on the net such as Pageant blue, or aqua, possibly even a Persian Blue. Just wondering if anyone happened to know what colours were used around that time.

Thanks for any help.
