lagoon colour mkII vs mkI

[norway_triumph 0]

I have a mkII colour chart - but no mkI

now i need some touch up paint for a mkI - blue car

This colour looks very much like the lagoon colour in my mkII chart.

does anyone know if the same colour were used on both mK's ??

(sorry no pics as my image-host-link is down)

As far as I am aware,lagoon blue was not available for the Mk1 cortina,the blues that you could get were,

Pompadour blue

shark blue

caribbean blue (possible match)

aqua blue (possible match also)light blue

 

I hope this helps.

Does the car have a chassis plate on the inner wing showing a paint code

I had a late 66 mark 1 that was lagoon blue - paint code was "CJ" and seemed to be the same as the mark II lagoon blues I've seen...

CJ Lagoon Blue is listed as used on 1967 and 1968 Mk2s in my US Mk2 parts list.
