Euro Paint Code Location
I own a '79 Euro SC that is currently wearing a non original paint job. I'd like to be able to locate the color paint code and I'm not sure where to find it. There are plates (in German) inside the trunk on the passenger side and also one on the driver's b-post but that is the import plate. I think the color is Minerva blue but any help in locating the color would be appreciated.
Thanks, Kevin |

It's in the driver's door jamb, between the hinges. It has a format of 999-9-9. The first three digits are the paint code.

Wonderfaul. I just checked and it says "304" - any clues as to what that means?

No, they all had it. Some got removed during a repaint.

That would fit my scenario, as I have seen small dust particals in the paint...definetly NOT a factory paint job...
Thanks for the info!

Does anybody have a picture of what a Minerva Blue 911 looks like?

It looks about like this. It's a metallic and pictures of it will vary a little depnding on the light it is photgraphed in. It sometimes appears a little darker.
