Photo of Classic 911 with orange wheels and script?
Guys I'm looking for a photo if possible, of a circa 1977 Porsche 911 (SC or Carrera 3.0 etc) where the color scheme is Black with Orange Fuchs and the "Carrera" script along the doors in Orange. Would anyone have such a photo?
Really interested to see what this color scheme looks like ![]() |

I don't think that was a stock color scheme back then.

Here you go.
Personally, I think a solid orange wheel centre would be too over-powering. Would look cool on a race car, but maybe too over the top for a road car. |

Thanks for the pics everyone! Basically someone I know is restoring a Carerra 3.0 which will have the orange wheels and script, but it's a whale tale - and I'm thinking of buying it. Originally I was not that keen on the Orange but its growing on me. I was thinking of removing the script and spraying the wheels black to bring it back to just plain black - but I'm kind of liking it now.
Seems pretty unique which is cool - however its not Original and some people like to stick with the arrangements Porsche released... I think it looks pretty cool in the pic above with the script removed and just with the Orange wheels - maybe I'll just go with that! Last edited by M0nster; 12-04-2011 at 02:54 AM.. |

The standard colors from the factory in those years were pretty basic. Black, white, blue and red.
I can help the basics and on other colors if you need them.
