Bugs and Sepia
Read any VW Bug mags or go to one of their shows, and you will see that their favourite colour tended to be Porsche Sepia Brown - same as my ī72 911S. They are very artistic people and I aplaud them (but I donīt approve that they take our Fuchs wheels - they should stick only to BRMīs).
Incidentally, 911 owners tend to hate Sepia Brown - isnīt that odd? Wherever I drive, I get drool looks and thumbs up....so why 911 owners donīt like the colour? Iīd be first to admit that Sepia wouldnīt look right in a grey country like England, but would look perfect in sunny Spain, Brazil or Cosa Mesa.... |

Just think of the fun you can have. You can refer to your car as "Brown", just like the UPS commercials.
Being non-galvanized, "Brown" will hide any rust for you to. "people love the truck"  There's nothing wrong with "Brown"

BROWN.....Yech
I also hate the UPS..... They have become PC by requiring that handguns be shipped 2nd day Air......which is about $40. Fed EX will ship Ground for about $8.
My Gawd it seems that I'm just full of hate....Hmmm I wonder if there is anything that I really like?

Tweed Material
Try contacting Schmidt on the Early Registry Board. He made some up for his restoration.
