Well, this thread clenches it. I initially thought I wanted my car painted green, and these pics solidify that now. Anders, your's is really beautiful too. So this is Irish Green huh. Is there anywhere in Arkansas I can get the paint so I know the color is right? What's the color code for it?
Thanks,
Joe

Joe - see paint guidance here, but use the color code from your Karmann Tag in the LF door jamb, & color codes at 914 info above & at p914.com -

PS - I've seen guys modify the 914 ski racks which span from the rollbar to the windshield frame to carry kayaks, surf/snow/boogie boards, etc. IIRC you can get a set of 2 racks, mounted L&R (914's ability to carry 4 pairs back in the day - I did 2 downhill & 2 XC), and modify them to mount a Yakima type pair of crossbars (& rollers for kayak) between the 2 F & 2 R, or get the crossbar type of 914 ski racks to do the same. See accessories at Jeff Bowlsby's 914 website for various types of ski racks.

I LOVE this color. Wish my L80E car was Irish green.
