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. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

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

If it's a poor repaint it may not match either. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
