As to period correct color: I can tell you based on today's paint vs those colors used before: you never get a "correct" paint color. It's impossible with today's new paints. You can get damn close but not spot on. I tried with 3 PTS samples and they never matched up. Porsche also has a new clear coat that they use which also cause the color to deviate.
I'm pretty sure all three are the same paint code..... but i will say the Canuck car pulls it off better. Better interior color choice, no acid green calipers and the Gulf logo in the headrest. |
Eduardo: We can put this to rest there is only one Gulf Blue PTS code on the approved 918 list: 328
It was on the list I sent you a while back |
Very well done.

Eduardo, if you ever want a new career you should look into being Detective. :cheers:

Besides as a detective I would have to get a Peugeot and I don't really care for 'Cheese-Eating, Surrender Monkeys' engineering! :corn: :icon107: Saludos, Eduardo Carmel . |
Its also worth noting that all 3 cars have different front bumper stripes.
