My paint code on the car is L-99A or Delphi Green metallic, but from posts and other pictures I have seen it sure looks like Raven Green, anybody have any sugestions for finding out the color on the car so I can order the correct scratch repair. Pictures to follow

That looks like Delphi Green to me. It is definitely not Ravenna Green.

Delphi....I don't believe that Ravena is metallic.

I had a '74 Delphi green 914 2.0L and it looked pretty much like what you are showing us.

Well according to your profile "I should believe you"

Thanks I guess I will get the the stuff from paintscratch then, until I can do the whole thing

Yup, it's Delphi without a doubt. My car is Ravenna and yours is not. (I had been shopping for Delphi first, Ravenna second.)

Ravenna is not metallic.

Delphi Green.

If it's a poor repaint it may not match either.

that's delphi... ravenna is more like bright lime, or nuclear baby-shit green... and ravenna isn't metallic as Mark already said... sorry, I like to repeat things said by the wiser...
