1967 BMC Touch Up Paint (10 OEM Colors)

The 1967 BMC Vibe

Close your eyes and think of 1967. You're hearing The Beatles on a transistor radio while a pack of Mini Coopers and MGBs zip through London's West End. This was the year BMC was at its peak, offering a palette that balanced "old world" heritage with "mod" flair. We've captured the best of that era with 10 legendary colors in our database. Whether you're chasing the royal depth of British Racing Green No 2, the bright pop of Pale Primrose, or the sophisticated, earthy tone of Peat, these colors weren't just paint-they were the car's personality.

Paint Health Check

Now, let's talk shop. In 1967, we were firmly in the Single Stage Era. Your BMC didn't get a fancy clear coat; it got a thick, honest layer of pigmented lacquer or enamel. The good news? It's got a depth that modern "thin" factory paint can't touch. The bad news? It's prone to "The Chalk." If your Basilica Blue or Florida Green looks dull, hazy, or leaves a colored powder on your rag when you touch it, that's oxidation. Without a clear coat to shield it, the sun literally bakes the life out of the pigment.

Restoration Tip

Because this is single-stage paint, it's thicker than the "robot-applied" stuff you see today, which means you can often buff it back to a mirror finish. But here is the golden rule for 1960s steel: It needs wax or it dies. Once you've polished away the oxidation to find that beautiful Healy Blue underneath, you must seal it immediately. In this era, wax isn't just for shows; it's a structural necessity to keep the oxygen from turning your restoration project back into a chalkboard. Feed the paint, and it'll stay vibrant for another fifty years.
