[Healeys] Special colours

[BJ8Healeys]

After a reminder from Mell Ward (UK 3000 registrar) and further research of
the BJ8 registry, I can report that there was also one Black car so far
recorded with non-standard Black trim.  The standard trim for Black BJ8s was
Red (Ambla or leather), but HBJ8/39741 received black trim (the certificate
does not say whether it was Ambla or hide upholstery).  The certificate for
this car also gives the Destination as "Not Recorded" but it was a Home
market (right-hand drive) car.

Hi Listers,
Did Austin Healey usually (or occasionally) offer special orders such as
non regular, non catalog colours or trims?
If yes, what colours were used?
