[Healeys] BJ8 Ivory White, was RE: 100-4 Spruce

[BJ8 Healeys]

Bob, I don't have the Pikovnic book, but apparently the records held by
BMIHT say the BJ8 color was called Ivory White.  Of the 660 BMIHT
certificates I have for BJ8s, 111 of them are for original white cars, plus
15 others for white as one of the duo-tone colors.  All of them call the
color "Ivory White".

I hear lots of folks say their BJ8 is "Old English White".  Until I see a
certificate from BMIHT that gives that color name, then my opinion is that
Old English White technically is not the correct name for the BJ8 color,
although Old English White and Ivory White might come out of the same can.

Now I r confused.  The Pikovnic book lists only OEW for BJ8s ... is the 
book wrong?

Also, as far as I can tell the only other 'white' listed is 'Pale Ivory.'
