Paint Codes

[Crazyswede]

Do we have a list of paint codes somewhere? I would like to get the paint code for that orangey yellow color used on the 99's and some 96's. Looks like this:

That looks like the color of that really cherry 99 that is under the tent at Carlisle every year.

John Weber painted his 99 orange. Not sure if it was a factory color or not, but its close.

[Luke]

I think its PPG code is 9717 , sometimes called Indian Yellow or Sunset orange. Used a lot on 74 99's.

[SwedeSport]

Perhaps the nicest original paint I have ever seen on a 99.

I knew we could count on the Lukester for a pic!

Perfect. Yep just the right amount of Orange and Yellow.

Google pulled up an old Saabrally post that Luke posted the Saab code as Y11 or Y11B for Napa.

There used to be a nice link on SaabHistory.com of all the paint codes, what year's they came in and color chips for reference, but looks like the link is recently broken. Would like to see that again.

I was looking for that too but it seems to be missing.
I don't think we'll see any updates there for a while.

Y11B says my color-plate :)
