[Healeys] What color should the instrument panel be for BN1 HealeyBlue?

List,

My BN1 #663 is Carmine Red w/black interior and red piping.  It has a 2 
piece facia exactly as Steve describes.  When I restored it, I did not 
strip the cluster as the paint was fine and I liked the red and black 
setting off the interior.  I had always heard it should be silver so I 
thought the original owner before me had changed it.  Now, perhaps not.  
Please add me to the mix along with fellow So. Cal. Assoc. member, Steve.
