Outstanding, Franz... thank you for your efforts in posting this here... a wonderful reference point.

One question: what is the source of the paint chips you are using?

Thanks!

the chip is STANDOX comercial vehicles chassis colour(zu deutsch LKW). RVI= Renault Véhicules Industriels ( rouge chassis 130 from 1987)
the standox thing already has some matting agent in the recipe and fits almost perfect.

found an other chip berliet (former french truck company swallowed by citroen and now also RVI) rouge chassis 3722.it is a bit to blue but i think if you mix both colours 50/50 this will be it.


have to restore a webasto soon and i will try this.

the two glow/spark plug versions
early version Beru 129G(short)
latter version Beru GZE12(long)

the longer/later version is the reason why porsche had to change the smugglers box lid.(will post pics of the lid versions asap)

here are the early and the later glove box door ....see above post

tom, yours is the one in the front...
currently a bit ahead of shedule but my plater guy is on holiday-- so a few weeks to go...

when i saw the pics of your car i immediately understood why there was a bit of the body dangling on the fragments of the webasto you sent me.

Since posting on the "what I did today" thread I've received several paint inquiries…..if you aren't going for absolute Pebble Beach 100 points, this combo of paint and finish is dead nuts for the Webasto and the swb flapper boxes….

swb flapper boxes are painted slightly different to the webasto units.

and you still missing the blue quality control stamping and the other ones pictured....got my stamps today


....
did a few webasto restorations in the last months.
3 of them restored to fully working condition.
set up a test stand(very rudimental)
and continued sourcing / reproducing parts for this units.
