This is a 1974 car, but not the original paint ( it was Olympic blue). It's a copper color, now faded due to the sun, but it suits the card in my eyes and I'm wondering if anyone recognizes an approximate Porsche color.

Good morning Mark - I think you may have answered my question before I finished even typing it!

Likes these I suppose then....?

Where these usually black or tan inside?

I have seen black tan and white. mine was tan originally its now black. Although I think the brown(cinnamon) would look great too. Only know of 4 Copper metallic cars. Jims, mine , one with white somewhere in bay area years ago, and one from florida that was listed here for sale a couple years ago that went to Europe.
also Noel's car that was repainted blue but was originally copper metallic- that happened to a few of them I think. Mine had a bad maco paint job over the original color that we took off and then repainted original color again.

Good morning and thanks for responding.

I'd love to see a larger picture of your car if you get a chance, I bet she looks great!
