xxx-y-z
xxx = paint code

y = factory
8 = ??? perhaps Karmann or other coach factory
9 = Porsche factory

z = paint supplier
1 is for Lesonal
2 is for Glasurit
3 is for Herberts
4 is for ?

The A1A1 code is a different but parallel series probably used by marketing. The code on the car's paint badge is the important one. Trying to research this stuff is difficult . A1 and 700 both refer to black.
