"I have located a paint code for Island Green. It was provided to me by Cliff Jones of South Carolina who owns a factory Island Green MGA coupe. He had his car repainted about 10 years ago and said this code is an excellent match for the original color. The paint is BASF Uno-HD which is acrylic single stage paint".

"The original paint code for Island Green from the paint maker ICI Belco was P030-5019. It is unlikely that colour code will be of much use these days, but an excellent match should be possible as the pigment types used are still available.
