#1 light blue paint code? 1969

Post by calijag » Wed Dec 28, 2016 2:31 am

the official color on my series 2 ots is light blue. does anyone know the original or current correct paint code?
also the current fiat 500 in sky blue seems remarkably similar to jaguar light blue.
thanks
ed

Hi
The paint code for Light Blue is JAG-507
However, I have just had my 1969 Series 2 OTS repainted and the paint code on the tins is Rover Jaguar Light Blue JFD. The paint was sourced from Mipa BC in Germany to match the original paint on my car by a well respected Jaguar restorer.
Incidentally my car also has Dark Blue trim.
Hope this helps
Regards
Simon

Hi Ed,

I have tried to post pics but files all appear too large.

I am having the seats, console done and trim kit supplied by GB Classic Trim in Nuneaton.

Quality seems first class.

The paint tins just say Mipa BC. It is base coat followed by clear.

If you can give me your email address I will try sending some pics of the car and completed seats to you

Regards
