Coffee Brown paint pigments??

[SM911]

I'm trying to assist my local painter and another early 911 owner who are in need of help...

There are two cars being painted Coffee Brown right now in Australia, and despite extensive searching of various paint systems, nobody can find any record of the pigments used in Coffee Brown (Kaffeebraun), which was a 66 to 69 colour. In those years it was listed as a special order colour, code 80342, and 6837 depending on the year. None of these codes show up on the paint systems available to us. I've also searched for the old Glasurit paint cards (which show a breakdown of colour pigments) but nothing on that front either... I'm wondering if a member has a 66-69 Glasurit guide that has the detail in it...

The car based in my location has been painted previously and they were only able to get a very small sample of Coffee Brown paint, certainly not enough to use as a sample (plus it's 40+ years old).

I'd greatly appreciate any advice about how we can find out the component pigments used to make Coffee Brown. It's a beautiful colour, and important to get it right.

Thanks in advance.

Brilliant!
Thanks Peter - I knew the answer would be out there somewhere.
