Hello,
Have a great restro base car I saved from a 20 year slumber in Hayward , CA. Very complete though has a 2.0 liter in it. GA case.

Seams like a pretty rare color from what I see. Blue Metallic. Covered by a layer of white and red though.

I had to Google it, looks like a darker blue. To me, that would be rare for 1970, most colors I've seen from early cars are white, red etc.

Blue Metallic is an extra charge option so it is not common on the 914/4 or 914/6

Not a great picture but the light wasn’t ideal

It’s a purdy color.

Cool link. Thinking the zinc phosphate only made it onto 1 of 10 cars!

Post a photo of the door jamb plate please. 98 color code is special order. Paint to match or paint to sample, I cannot recall. An awesome color.

Blue Metallic would be paint code L96P not L98P.

Our '70 came in that color. From the "world" color charts, it was a one year only paint. I've never seen another in 40+ years. Really nice dark metallic blue. If I can find a good picture I'll post it.
