Al, according to "English & Australian Small Fords," which is the most definitive source of information I have found, the E493A was available in Black, Bristol Fawn, Channel Green, Essex Blue, and Honey Beige. My E93A was black when I got it but there is some evidence that it may have been beige originally. Sorry but I don't know how these name convert to current manufacturers. From photos I have seen, I would say the blue was fairly dark but I don't think I would call it Midnight.
