Looking for an example of a Porsche color
 
I know this is probably a long shot....but I'm hoping to find a photo of any Porsche model painted Cashmire Beige (code 502), used late 70s thru at least '80.

Anyone?

Here area few examples: http://www.geocities.com/jonburgis/porsche.html

IMO, the SC is showing a bit too yellow. The center of the hood on the third pic is looking pretty accurate.

Here's a much better example: (The owner calls the car Skippee as she says the color is the same as Peanut Butter)

Looks a little like baby poop.

Jamie's SC is very nice. A very light cream color. I think he said it is Chiffon.

Looks "fleshy" to me.....

Thanks Rick, I had such a hard time finding anything out there with that color. I did find one that looks just like "skippie", except it's a 930 (or look-alike) with whale tail and the those rock chip gaurds on it; the extra black trim compliments that color.

It's getting "go" time to repaint my 928, I've got to decide on a color soon. Talbot Yellow and Cashmire Beige are "year-proper" colors for the '79, but the front-runner is Pastel Beige (536 code).

Supe, what year is Jamie's SC? I think the Chiffon White was replaced with the Patel Beige in '83; just a bit darker shade like this:

Note to self: Never paint anything Cashmire Beige.
