1967 Paint code

[BillStrachan]

hello all, i have my grandfathers 1967 moke that i would like to get repainted at some point and im not sure of the paint code. it is a british racing green but i see that there are 3 or 4 different paint codes. i am hoping if anyone can tell what paint code i have based off a few pictures i have of it. thank you in advance

The colour is spruce green so that’s the code you’ll be looking for

Is there an overall list of paint colours on here somewhere? I also have a paint code question. I'll start a new thread if necessary, but if the info is already available I shall look it up myself and not clog up the forum.

You can try looking the above to see if it is of any help in identifying the colour and paint code you require.

To my knowledge there's no single list. Its complicated by the way they moved around from factory to factory.

UK is easy, they were almost all spruce green, with a few snowberry (?) white. Australia had heaps of different colours (the later ones with silly names). I've never seen a comprehensive list of the ones used on Mokes though, because they seemed to use whatever colour the factory was using that week on all the other models, and they had a lot of colours to choose from.

Portugal also had a reasonable range, which tended to change from year to year. They are listed in the back of "Moke: The History" by the Mini Moke Club.

Even if you can determine the paint code, its not always possible to get modern paint mixing details to go with it.

It's Portuguese Moke 25 I'm after, particularly the white of the bumpers to start with, but the body red will be useful in the fullness of time.

Sorry, the forum doesn't do tables very well, hopefully you can interpret this. Looks like you have few to choose from.

This data is taken from Moke: The History By The Mini Moke Club, which you should buy from the club shop.

Its a useful reference - pretty cheap too.
