Is that the same as Dalmation?

Hmmm. that seems way to dark to be the same color as mine. I will track down a digi cam tomorrow if its sunny, and get your guys 2 cents on my color

AMB may have a different color their calling Tobacco Brown. Any way I would like to check yours out sometime.

I wanted silver but have really grown to like my casablanca beige metallic SC. I have only seen one other SC this color.

This looks the same. I believe it's Marine Blue Metallic, and it does change color with different levels of sunlight.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1169779269.jpg

Thanks Jim! Dalmation blue is nice too, pretty RS's! My car is a funky Toyota color from the 90s, don't know what it's called exactly. It's in between Albert and Dalmation/Sea/Oxford Blue. My car should be the original Albert Blue...gotta put a few rock chips in the current paintjob though....

Is yours this color? Mine is a 79SC. If so, it's called Tobacco Metallic. Not too many around. I've seen maybe three or four others in 20+ years and a couple dealers have told me they seldom see them. Always gets complements though. Definitely a period color for the 70's.

Here it is, Sorry for the horrible pic quality, I will take some better one's soon enough. This was actually my grandfathers originally, and he left it to me when he passed away. I grew up drooling over this car.

Great 911s guys!! Looks like I got some work to do...

johndglynn 01-27-2007 03:01 AM

What about this - 2.7 in factory paint, done for the '76 Geneva Show. Pretty impressive if someone's seen another one. I love this car; bright solid (non-metallic) colours are right up my street. On sale here.
