Hello again,
I was looking to find the original paint for my 1976 914, but when i checked the the tag on the car it said "L 98 B" and when i matched it up with one of the only metallic green on auto atlantas paint chart, the closest i could find was "L 96 B". How would i find the L98B? help please! EDIT: I just found on a VW colour id. website the paint i was looking for http://www.clubvw.org.au/colour_identification.htm but if you go down to 1976, it says Viper Green Met. L98B(which sounds correct) BUT if you look at Viper Green Met. on auto atlanta it says L96B? are they the same? i dont want the next paint job to look as bad as the smart guy before me. James |

Do you have a good color photo of your car? Post it here. Also need a good photo of the Karmann badge with that color code on it. They have been known to be wrong. There could also exist a new code we are not aware of.
Mark's site is not bad, but it has its errors and omissions. The 914World info page is much better as far as codes go. This is the best info I have on code L98B, and it is obviously not Viper Green Metallic although it is close. I'll need your VIN and chassis # from the Karmann badge as well.  |
