what color is this?
Can anyone help identify the color of this 356?
 I'm restoring an old Datsun 2000 roadster and am considering painting it this color if I can just find out what it is? Thanks!

Thanks Mag. I don't see it though. I found Sand Grey on Wilhoit's site http://www.willhoitautorestoration.com/images/Colors/SandGrey527.jpg and it looks far different. Although, I guess it could be my screen.
However, someone from Rennlist pointed me to a French site that features this pre-A 356 http://porsche356prea.over-blog.com/ and another French speaking RL'er has sent an inquiry on my behalf in an attempt to find out the color.

Not sure if anyone cares at this point
, but just in case someone does I want to point out the color. A fellow from Rennlist was able to get the answer from the owner; it's an old VW color - L346 Mango Green.  And I may get banned on this board for this, but here is a photoshopped image of what I was thinking of doing to my roadster (this car is actually silver):
