    New paint tag

    I have a new paint tag coming shortly.
    I would like to have the correct - as far as can be determined - number stamped on.
    My car is a '71 S in silver.
    Following threads here and on Pelican,I think the right one should be -
    925 - 9 - 2

    I know 925 is silver,9 is Porsche build,but am I right to connect a Porsche build with Glasurit or could it be whatever spray pack Hans had in his hand at the time,ie Lesonal,Glasurit or Herbol ?

    Cheers,
    Dennis.

    bump...

    Maybe I'm asking the wrong question.
    Does anyone here have a '71 2.2S coupe in silver that has a paint tag showing what the original paint coding would have been ?
    I would like to see a pic of these numbers.
    Should the number be 8080 or 925 ?
    Should the paint maker be L,G or H ?
    Pls un-confuse me!

    Cheers,
    Dennis.

    Dennis,

    I have a 71 S Targa that is originally silver which I believe is code 8010 (8080 for a coupe) - I will take a picture of the original tag and send it to you tonight. Oh when you view the photos don't be confused about the current color on my car which is unfortunately red and not the correct silver

    Thanks,
    Sam
