Does anyone know the paint code for ‘Florentine Blue’ or where the code is stamped on the bodywork

Hi Alfaman, The BMC paint code for Florentine Blue is BU7. Unfortunately the paint code is not stamped anywhere on the body and the chassis number will not tell you the colour. (Only the first 150 pre-production cars had the colour code incorporated on their chassis number!) Roger

Thanks Roger For your information ,my paint supplier informed me that working without a code is difficult as the only reference is by the name of the colour. It sees there is a Rover colour Florentine blue year 1969/1973 and Florentine green 1959/1962 I will try him with the code you kindly supplied.

Its worth remembering that most old BMC colours are now named Rover colours - I was able to buy Rover Damask Red off the shelf from Halfords - its the same as our BMC Damask Red!
