Default 1971 911T Targa

Anyone have an Olive Green 911?

Everyone calls it Baby Sh_t Green!

I purchased a 1971 911T Targa about 8 years ago from the second owner in TN. He purchased it from a Dr Katz in Beverly Hills, CA. I tried to get a hold of him but he was not receptive. His office staff remembers the car because of the color.

I did some research and found that .68% of the cars produced that year were in Olive Green.

I would appreciate it if anyone has any info. on the color or maybe even the car?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!!

Don't judge me on the bad taste of the previous owner.

The car has the wing removed, after market fog lights, and everything else that makes it look like a drug dealer's car from the 1980's

My grandpa had a 1973 911e that was this color. I have a picture of it but need to determine the best way to post it. It was a coupe that he sold in 1990. He only put 19k miles on it in 17 years. Wish I could have bought it.

That looks very close to military green that I have seen on big vehicles before, I wonder if they offered it to get rid of surplus paint.

I think Ferry sneezed one day and called it a color.

Is the paint code on the door post?
Drivers side?

Just a technical correction here....the name of the color is officially "Olive", not "Olive Green". I absolutely love it. I almost painted my '73 RS tribute car this color.

Awesome. Clearly you have exceedingly good tast to go along with your big cojones. What are your plans for this unique car?

Wait a minute. You are the .68%! Shame, shame, shame.
