    Agreed. Very close... I'm hopeful that I will find a sticker inside the bonnet on the right. I didn't check there yet. After googling, and reading on a few forums, I was only able to find your car, and the 930 mentioned here and on Pelican:

    Very cool Scott. Nice find.

    Thanks Frank. The interior is black, and in really good shape, despite a lot of miles on it. Car was in Colorado for many years, so I guess it escaped the southern sun damage.

    Rick Cabell found the color of his Continental Orange SC scribbled “in crayon” under the interior door cards.

    The small Z on the bottom right of the stickers indicates that this car was the subject of at least one Z-order. A Z-order is a special request from the customer. It could be the paint or something else, so the only way to be sure is to ask Porsche.

    Referring to Tom's post, and my original #51, I was determined to find a paid code tag, and I did .
    #107 Continental Orange.

    Classic. Thank you for the post. I will check the inside fender for a paint tag, and if all else fails... I can look in the doors. In your case, were you able to get paint for your car, once you had this code? Not that I need paint, but am curious about the process - even if just for touch up work.

    Thanks. From what I can tell that was offered, but in the late 70's maybe? I kept running across conflicting info when looking on Rennlist, Pelican Parts, etc.
