IMO, Tangerine is a great "classic" color for a 911 or 914. That's a great picture, btw.

Rich.....

Yeah it is....greatest trick in the book............Always shoot a picture at the "golden hour", 4.30 pm.....

I like Tangerine ;)

Sweet color for me too!!

Very nice. :)

It's ok, but I like signal orange more.

That was my second choice, but i went with green instead.

nice Larry, real nice...so what color is that?

This is a tangerine '69E with an '82 3.0SC engine. It has 40mm PMO carbs and a 901 tranny......

dkm.....Awesome

Hey that is what I will have in 12 days ;-)

So tell me how fast 0-60 is a '69 3.0 Carbd with 901????

I had a '70T targa (2.2) with webers last summer that seemed to be modified. Maybe S P/C...It liked to rev and be up there in the RPM to get to the higher speeds (90+ mph).

Since the 3.0 was rebuilt stock, the 0-60 seems to be in the 7 sec range. With the bigger displacement, there's a lot more of everything (hp, torque, etc...) and it is difficult to max it out on the street. I was able to keep up with a 996 and we were going 120 mph.....

I'll answer for Larry. It's Signal Orange. Here are some other pics:

I have one this colour but someone told me it is Bahama Yellow, if anybody knows different let me know.

Nice!

Guess I don't have to say I like tangerine :D

I'm partial to tangerine (aka Blood Orange) myself.

Am considering the PORSCHE sidescript and a duck...

Larry,

What is the color code on the paint tag? The last year that Bahama Yellow was a standard color was '69.

let's not forget Bahlia Red, also changes color in different sun and different processinghttp://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1122900374.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1122900431.jpg

I used to have a signal orange S, but must admit I also like tangerine. So much so I have just had a 73 E painted in it.

Here is the car I have pictured above which is now almost back together. I have also just fitted some refurbished recaro sport seats, which have been done in leather with German cord centres. I will also try and get some pics of that as it looks great against the tangerine. The pictures do not do the car justice, the paint work shines.

Thanks

I had a 73.5 Tangerine 911T in the 80's. Wish I never sold it. I think the longnose Porsches are the best looking.

My 911 was originally Signal Orange... and man, that picture, and several others I've seen repainted to Signal Orange just look NICE.

I'm very tempted to take mine back to the original color. It would definitely get attention!

If I were to have the option of choosing the color of my car-Tangerine would be it.

My two long-hood inspirations; I think they are both stunning-

Everytime I see Tangerine I think of gaurds red. How different are these? Here's mine in GR although I love tangerine.

"also changes color in different sun "

I love how bright colors POP in the sun and change so much in the shade too. I would like to see a tangerine car in a similar pic to this to show the color changes with varied light.

Signal Orange is also a great colour. I used to have a Right Hand Drive 71 S that I restored to it's original signal orange. It looked great, especially as it was metallic blue when I bought it. But if it was a choice between that and tangerine, it would be close....

Here it is when I bought it. I have worked to remove the incorrect mirrors, have the wheels refinished, replace the incorrect Ducktail among other things. I decided to leave the Gold script for now though.:)

Very nice.

Thanks Alan.

BTW, a Signal Orange 2.2S coupe would be my ultimate early keeper. We have a 2.2S SO Targa, but you know.... its still a Targa.:D

Beautiful!!!!!! I think I know the color of my next 911!
