got my COA in the mail today i thought my interior was called lobster but its called Russet code is 72 anyone else have this??

 

The COA for my 77 says lobster, too. But interior expert Bob Budd says that is wrong. He says lobster is more red than the can can red that is in the car. He is using lobster to redo interior. Bob says that the COA process didn't always produce accurate results. I have a picture showing the two together to show the contrast.

 

mine looks orange-red but it says russet on COA

 

I'd call Tony at Autobahn interiors and send him a sample- I don't see russet as an option in 77 only 76, doesn't mean you couldn't get it as a option. COA have lots of issues with accuracy. Check the paint tag mounted to A pillar - interior code should be stamped on tag.

Actually have been talking to tony He is going to do the interior

Is the 1976 russet a lobster looking color. I'm going to look on tag today and see

 

Is there an interior paint tag on a '77 Turbo?

 

Here is my paint tag from my 77, I always assumed the 9-3 was interior code, please educate me.

 

Ok Mike pardon my advice - 9 is for Porsche 3 Herberts (paint vendor), I got a little smarter today

Phil, I thought that you were joking with your original question.

 

I don't what I was thinking, I must of been having a senior moment.

Phil,

As you well know, "Senior moments" are a sign of things to come.......for you. It's only going to get worse, so being the good friend, I'm going to come pick up your Turbos and bring 'em back to your old area code for safe storage ! ! !

I wouldn't want you to have a "Senior moment" at an intersection.

Just looking out for your well being

 

Well I always knew I could count on you in my time of need

 

The care and concern fellow Rennlisters have for each other is truly heartwarming!!!

 

Jus brings tears to yer eyes, don't it ?
