    Historic liveries

    Looking for some inspiration for a hisctorical livery/decal set for a viperngreen 911 beside the Kremer ST.

    Have allready searched the internet and we decided that the BRUMOS/Martini sets will not match with the colour.
    The colour is quite a challange.

    How about something somewhat obscure.

    119300644 was manufactured as a normal S by the factory and duly sent to the Werks Porsche Competition Department who converted T, E, and S specification cars into S/T Specification straight from the production line. The car was sold to Kent Frohde, resplendent in Conda Green, on the 22th September 1971. The engine- an original 2 Litre – was tuned to 242bhp. According to Kent Frohde, this was the strongest 2 litre engine that Porsche had tuned at the time.

    The car was raced in Swedish racing series at the beginning of the 1970s until it was retired, and the last time it was road worthy was 1976. During 1970 to 1976 it follo§wed the evolution of race cars and was upgraded to meet the competition.

    Chassis 119300644 comes complete with a large history file, containing a letter from Kent Frohde confirming its authenticity. The car has been used by its current owner on a large number of European events and rallies where it has performed well. It also benefits from a recent and documented engine rebuild.

    Thanks for the replies. I like the Safari look most, but I still need some more inspiration.

    Dirk,

    My go-to advice for this question is to look at the factory color options for your year car. Think about a contrasting color (colors) for your viper green car. Then think about all the easy 'un-boltables' (bumpers, valance, rear deck, hood) in that contrasting period color. Looking back at historical 911 racing pics, it seems that was an easy go to for some teams and privateers.... a body color, and contrasting un-boltables…. I've seen Viper Green with Tangerine and it looks GREAT...

    My .02 … and just a thought

    Cheers and good luck,
    cm

    That car looks like leaf green, certainly a color in 1969
