I went through the process of getting the COA on my car (paint code 98), hoping that I might get lucky and they would include something besides just:
"Metallic Paint to sample/9992" What options are there to get some kind of official confirmation of a car's color (e.g. Sahara Beige) I have some dealer color samples from 1974 (Paint chip card) and my car's color is pretty clearly Ice Green Metallic(1974 optional 911 color), but is there any way to officially define it as such? -Ross Attached image(s)

That's a great idea! I have some 74 paint chips. The guy from Indiana was probably me, I moved out to Colorado from Lafayette, IN last fall.

QUOTE(rnellums @ Dec 20 2014, 01:42 PM)  That's a great idea! I have some 74 paint chips. The guy from Indiana was probably me, I moved out to Colorado from Lafayette, IN last fall. It was you .... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) .... then I wasn't having a brain fart when I saw your name & color & thought it was you .... until I saw CO!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) The 911 registry &/or PCA 911/912 RennList may help you find a local CO in Ice Green too for further confirmation/comparison. Our son is now posted at Ft Carson CO (CO Springs), so we may be out there some time when there is actually one of those concours in your 1st pic to see it in person! What & where was that taken? Post here if that method works, as it may be useful to other members with 98 & 99 code cars! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/santa_smiley.gif) Tom /////// |
