 |
|
| I am trying to find a modern paint code/number for L75 Light Beige and L76 Brown Beige. I don't have an example to take and possibly get scanned so I am forced to rely on a book code. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks. |

If you have access to a paint shop that has a color scanner, chances are their top paint guy can track down and transpose those codes.
I was able to find the Light Beige L75 using my Spies-Hecker color retrieval database (HELLBEIGE, or "bright" beige in German), so it's possible.
Maybe seek out guidance from a restoration/body shop that specializes in vintage Porsche / Volkswagen. I'm sure they can get you on the right track.
Good Luck!
