thats strange, I cant find a single place on the frame which ever used to be white... Under dash has some spots of yellow, as does the rest of the body, but no white Are you sure about the color?

I think light ivory is fairly yellow, is the yellow you see YELLOW, or off white?

hellelfenbein Translate into English as Light Ivory and 6404 means that it was a 1964/65 light Ivory.

If the car has been taken down to bare metal. Then there might not be any of the original color left. If the Kardex has Hellelfenbein as the original color. That is the color it had when it left the factory
