AFAIK in the '70ies Porsche painted their different 911 T/E/S engines (better: parts of the engines) in different colours
I don't know the correct colours for the different engines, but orange was one of these colours, green an other - sorry, don't remember the 3rd colour (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wavey.gif) Gustl |
