Hello all. Tried to research this and its incredibly difficult as everything is confused by blue Opals!
Opal blue was a standard colour for 30-32. We don't see it on any of the Austin/Belco cards as they are all too late.
Does anyone have any documentary evidence or on-car evidence of something.... that ain't blacky Royal Blue (another standard) or the earlier Kingfisher turquoise? i.e. paint from behind hinges, patent plate or whatever.
