Help me find a Carrera RSR Turbo Poster
Redoing Garage in a Martini Turbo Carrera RSR Targa Florio 1973 livery. I need a good true to original colour poster to match the paint.
I've printed pictures but they never are quite right for good colour match for the silver and reds. Any suggesting for good posters that have good colour that's not washed with light.

You're trying to color match a car based on a poster. Not so sure that's the right approach....

AFAIK, the only "Martini" colors are the dark blue, light blue, and red. Shouldn't be too hard to find the exact color codes for those. Everything else is secondary, based on the specific cars.
For the one pictured above (and others similar), it looks like the standard Porsche Silver Metallic, with the bumper/valance in Continental Orange (just a guess on both). |

Also, the next time you take a picture of the colors, take a WhiBal card with you and include in your photo. Make sure take the photo in RAW format so you can properly adjust the white balance in post processing.
Then you can get the RGB colors using tools in a variety of programs. WhiBal - LensAlign

They never raced a Turbo Carrera at the Targa. The last one was in 1973 won by a (naturally aspirated) RSR. In 1974 Porsche started with the Turbo Carrera using the know-how from the Can-Am 917.
