[Healeys] What color red was my BT7?

Your car would have been Colorado red. The white will have been added later,
red and white was not a colour option. Personally I think it's best to stick
to the original colours. Not necessarily the original to your car though. It's
always harder to sell cars with personal paint schemes.
