The Utlimate Ruby Red (Rubinrot) Picture Thread
 

OK, not trying to be a separatist, but I was perousing another thread tonight and thought it would be cool to have a thread that was dedicated to: Ruby Red's

If you got 'em, post 'em. (other colors, get your own threads - http://www.pelicanparts.com/support/smileys/grin.gif

I will start with mine:

Holy......What a nice car we have here...!!!!!!!!!

I have asked this before but have not found the answer yet... Is there some reference we have to know how many of each color were made each year, or even how many of each color in each body style?

Here's mine:

I love this colour, although I've never understood why it's called "ruby red" - it looks more of a sort of "earth brown" to me.

Here's another pic, with a nice church in the background:

The engine is out to address the standard (hopefully) oil leaks. It will be at least 3-4 weeks before it's back on the road...going through withdrawals... :( I am driving the 325i in the meantime...not bad but it's not the SC.

First you tease us with the "Ladies boot to Steering Wheel Cover Conversion" and now you exclude the other colors. I say we bomb this with Guards pics.

I'm sure I'm not overly biased when I say Rubinrot is 'THE' colour!! Depending on the lighting it appears anywhere from ruby to burgundy to metallic brown. Cheers!

Great looking cars, guys!

Over 90% of all the cars I have driven since getting my driver's license have been red, but for some reason my 911 selections have ended up being some shade of Grey.

Regards,
David.

This is my '84 Carrera.

No pictures on this post, but some interesting (I think) info on our favorite color...

According to paintscratch, aside from the early years Ruby Red, 1983 and 1984 are the only two years that Rubin Rot was offered...

I always thought this was "Ruby Red"

:cool:

Yes, I think you are right, but right for that era of Ruby Red.

1957-1959 Ruby Red Code #5702
1960-1961 Ruby Red Code #6002
1962-1963 Ruby Red Code #6202
1964-1965 Ruby Red Code #6402

It may have been available on other 60's and early 70's cars as well, but this is as far as I have gotten so far... Please add to this if you know...

It's a 65 C CoupeSmileWavy

I love it that look. I want to do one like that one of these days. Same type of look as that with the fuchs. Is that one yours? It's a beauty!

It used to be.
Now belongs to my brother.
It's been in the family since the mid 70's.

The Fuchs are 6X16 by the way.:)

Awesome car. You guys did a nice job!

Thanks;)

My brother has taken it back to stock and has redone the inside and installed the original bumpers.

I also raced the car in "Vintage" for a few years.:D
