Title: Re: So what colour is this guys?????????? Post by: Jason Foster on December 14, 2008, 07:01:39 am my first thought was also Sepia brown
Title: Re: So what colour is this guys?????????? Post by: jick on December 14, 2008, 14:00:26 pm it looks very like that popular British Leyland 70's colour....Harvest Gold.
i dont think it looks much like Sepia brown...? i think it looks great though. simililar? http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C68592?pt=pf# Title: Re: So what colour is this guys?????????? Post by: nicolas on December 14, 2008, 14:25:25 pm Porsche Sepia Brown. i'dd go with sepia brown as well, but it is very hard, read impossible, to accurately see what colour is what from a picture. pictures capture light on a specific moment on a specific film and it never ever comes out like the real thing. so i like the colour, or should i say 'feel' off the car as well, but if it is sepia brown or puke, dodo, nuclear green, i don't know for sure. but i must say it looks like a nice car. and like some fellow men i have a huge problem in seeing colours that range from red to green and brown... those colours are nice are not. easy. this one NICE, especially with the wheels Title: Re: So what colour is this guys?????????? Post by: Sarge on December 14, 2008, 14:39:12 pm Hard to call a color on an overcast day... with the sun shining, it would look completely different. Looks like pea green to me.

Post by: yvre on December 14, 2008, 21:24:15 pm Definitely not Sepia Brown.
Probably some obscure GM or Ford colour from the 70's. Title: Re: So what colour is this guys?????????? Post by: Zach Gomulka on December 14, 2008, 22:02:12 pm Definitely not Sepia Brown. Probably some obscure GM or Ford colour from the 70's. I agree, and I like it! Reminds me of a green that was on late 60's Ford full size wagons... you know the ones with the ugly fake wood panels ;) Title: Re: So what colour is this guys??????????

Title: Re: So what colour is this guys?????????? Post by: Wünderwolff on December 15, 2008, 07:53:02 am Now that is beginning to look like an aaawwwfuuulllll color ;D I would not go that route and not look at the 74 Porsche 914 charts. And certainly not at colors like L65K. Because, who would want to spray his '66 in such a horrible hue 8) Worse still, try finding two !!!
Title: Re: So what colour is this guys?????????? Post by: jick on December 15, 2008, 12:22:01 pm Is this the one you ment Jick ??? ;) :) thats the one...i remember now telling you about it before....my mind is shot to bits ;) Title: Re: So what colour is this guys?????????? Post by: Jon on December 15, 2008, 12:33:20 pm Since the color of the "for sale" sign is a pretty much standard. Why not adjust the picture in Photoshop until the For sale looks convincing, and THEN judge the color... Unless it's the color you see in the pic that you actually love... :)

You know, I'm almost afraid to tell you I'm thinking about using an Aronson decklid ;D The only reasons right now not to would be they are so damned hard to track and you will also be running one ;) Title: Re: So what colour is this guys?????????? Post by: Christoph on December 16, 2008, 00:33:35 am damn, the butterscotch looks even better on a car, the citron yella is a bit to heavy for my taste.
at the moment my favorit color is the plymouth bahama yellow, it looks more like mustard, the porsche colour looks a bit too orange. (http://superblog.absolog.ch/files/images/2007/2/mob358_1170843254.jpg) maybe someone knows other mustard looking yellows? christoph Title: Re: So what colour is this guys??????????
