Okay, so I want to take my early-73 914-2.0 (marketed in USA as a "914S" then) back to the original OE Light Ivory color, which I can still see under the floor mats, etc. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

The problem is, I'm seeing quite a range of this innocuous color on various 914s & 911s, ranging from a bright white to a more mellow off-white befitting the "light ivory" name, and I'm seeing color chart sample chips in that same range! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Then to compound that, the 73MY documents which I've found online call the color L80E in some places & 1110 in others, while my COA calls it only 11. Of course they also call my #31 Beige upholstery "black" - contrary to those documents' interior codes & even their own other COAs where black is #11! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

So does anybody have the proper L80E/1110/11 "Light Ivory" paint tint/color mix formula for a 1973 MY 914?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Here are a few examples from my research to illustrate my dilemma....
