[Healeys] Reno Red - revisit

[BJ8 Healeys]

Rich, what about Metallic Golden Beige for BJ8s?  All of the chassis numbers
and build dates are known for the original Metallic Golden Beige cars.  If
someone presents a Phase 2 BJ8 in Concours painted in Metallic Golden Beige
with a chassis number that pre-dates the availability of that color from the
factory, would there be a deduction?

Bill,

If you desire to have a non standard colour scheme for a particular series, 
such as the example you mention BN4-L-O/29609, that will be fine for that 
particular car with no deduction. That will not hold true for "any BN4", 
just the particular one listed. If you for instance have a later BN4  built 
after the time period the colour was known to be available, you cannot hold 
up this earlier instance as being suitable to substantiate your desire for 
Reno Red.
There is a description of standard deductions in the National Concours 
Committee Guidelines dealing with these instances of "standard colours" 
being applied to a car outside of the known time period.
