Me again,
Does anyone know what the process for ordering a "Custom Porsche Colour" was in 1974? Did you just go into a dealer and say "I'll take one in (insert favorite porsche paint colour here)"? My chassis plate says "98" but the colour is close to L13K (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Thanks SW |

Yes, Steve (1) I had to steal your photo from an earlier thread of mine you posted to. It was the only good photo I knew of (of a PERFECT Sahara Beige). Andy, yes that car is also a good candidate. The pictures posted on the web are not good representations of the true color. Andy's and Steve (1)'s photos look a little grey compared to the yellow hint in the actual sample. The Carrera looks a little too deep a shade.
The same argument can be said of the Fraise / raspberry / pink / rose red on a few of the cars. Some pictures show a pepto bismol pink, but the actual color is closer to a strawberry red ( coincidentally, the fraise is French for strawberry so how it got translated to raspberry I'm not sure). |
