Default Color code

Hi all,

I am hoping someone will be able to assist in pinning down the color of my vehicle, as I am hoping to have her resprayed soon. There is no color references or codes on her plaques.
I initially thought it could be DB050 Weiss, but after looking at some color charts I'm not sure if it could be one of the ivories perhaps?

Here is a link to some photos - Photos 1-4 is of the actual vehicle, and photos 5-6 are of vehicles with the same color which I found online. Also added as attachments to this post.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards, Jacques

Have you tried a site that gives you the build list by VIN number? The build list will have the color in it. At least that has been my experience.

Just my $.02 worth.

Hi Traveler0980,

Yes I have, however they do not work as her VIN falls in the range before it was standardized (there are too few numbers in the VIN, so the VIN decoder sites cannot recognize or process her number. As far as I understand, it works for VINs from around 1974 onward.
Thank you nonetheless for your input ;-)
