Help with colorcode?
 
Im stripping the old girl down for paint and found the original paint under the sound insulting mats. The color is seriously cool and im getting second thoughts about painting the car white, can someone plz tell me if this is "225 emerald green(viper)" and if not, which of the other 4 shades of green Porsche used in -72? it is?:confused:

Looks like Conda or Viper green, whichever of the two colors that were used in 1972.

Is the paint badge missing? If not, then it should tell you exactly what that is, and it is very appealing. It looks pretty sound back there.

Sadly the options badge seems to have been lost when a previos owner did the 930 body conversion and painted everything.

That might also be Lime Green.
Code 137

The Lime is brighter and more yellow than Viper Green

From looking at the pictures it must be viper, lime green looks to bright to match.

Hah! My car is on that website -- paintcode 360 on the 'blau' page, I took that photo in front of our house a while ago :) Kind of cool to see my car there, but kind of creepy also...I guess they got the photo from Pelican here.

Back on track...you're a lucky 911 owner to have an original Viper green car. That color rocks!

Is that a metallic color? Then it could be the 1972 "Metallic Grün".

hightuned 10-21-2013 09:27 AM

Its not a metallic just a crappy picture taken with a ipad, love that RS above seriously cool!
Think im going to go for widebody RS look in viper green as i got soft spot for the Singer look, but cant affort to buy one.:(
