Don’t forget Kurt’s use of the Aston Martin Sage Green on a bunch of his cars.  Looks nice too!

You are correct.
 Kurt Tanner liked the color and painted his auction cars that way, no matter the year of the BJ8. Others have decided it is the best auction color for the car... Like the 1200 M 100-4s of the 640 built, buyer be ware.

G'day all,
My BJ8 was factory finished in Metallic Golden Beige (Code BG19) with a build date of late April early May 1967 according to my BMIHT Certificate and has a black interior.
According to Anders Ditlev Clausager's book "Original Austin-Healey", Metallic Golden Beige is a rare colour, that I am led to believe to be only applied to the 1967 BJ8's, with the MGB/Red interior being the rarest of all. Steve Byers, please chime in mate if I am wrong.
If this info is correct, any BJ8 in MGB that is NOT a '67 model then it is not the original colour.
Cheers,
