Does anyone have a car painted original '73-'74 marathon blue L96M they could post? It is my cars original color though a previous owner chose to have it painted silver and there are only a few (under the gas tank ect.) spots where I can see the original color but it is in too poor of condition to get a good idea of what it really looks like. I could only find one on the internet, actually 2 but I am pretty sure the other is Alaska Blue and miss labeled. I am painting soon and do not even know if the "silver" is the real L96D silver ect. It is a huge job to tear everything off the car for a solid paint job and just want to be well informed.

I found it never u mind.....

Okay, so now that I have my laptop back with my 914 files, I've found the link below for the Phx. Red I'd seen FS awhile back, that had named a German paint brand:

http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=93757

Is that an OEM paint mfgr. for VW-Porsche on the 914s, or just a current German mfgr of good quality auto paints?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Tomorrow the laptop goes back to them cuz they replaced the motherboard - but without the Bluetooth option which I had & didn't repair all problems!!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)
