This is my newly acquired '63. Appears to have only been painted once, the dark green color. But under the hood and in the engine compartment, it appears to have the original paint still. Any idea what color this is??

From a couple years ago (I have sold a few since). Though the vert, rag and Lotus White '67 have been repainted, they are still original colors:

From left to right:
1960 Rock Grey Kabriolett
1963 Pearl White ragtop
1967 Lotus White
1967 Zenith Blue
1965 Bahama Blue (with a/c!)

My former 1956 Strato Silver was shown earlier in the thread and is not in the lineup.

I'd show my Sea Gull Grey/Mango Green '59 Westy SO-23, but since this is the bug forum, nobody'd care Sad .

VW really had some cool colors in the '50s and '60s Cool !

Another diamond grey one (L243 Diamantgrau)... depending on the light situation, this colour gets a greenish or slightly golden touch. The car has been resprayed at some point in time, but is very close to the original.
