paint codes for biege porsches....not for a porsche though
i am currently building a copy of Steve Mcqueen jeep. see pics on google, and i am trying to match the colour , i am thinking that some of the 60s porsche biege colours ( like sand ) might work. ( i have currently sample cards for colours RAL 1013,1014 and 1015 if anyone is interested ) as i cant get it perfect, be it there is only two pictures of the Jeep anyway.
if anyone can point me somewhere for colour codes that would be great.
thx

Re: paint codes for biege porsches....not for a porsche thou
RAL 1014 looks closest to me, but then there are so many variables that can affect the colour you see, photographic technique, film used, ageing, how the image was digitised, your monitor settings, etc.
Some random googling found this

and this

Sand Tan maybe

Also here, I see one of the photos is dated 1969 so might not be Sand Tan according to this:

Surely the builders know their paint codes for these Jeeps?
Eitherway looks Sand Tan to me.

Re: paint codes for biege porsches....not for a porsche thou
Steve McQueen patented a type of seat with integral headrest for his Jeep as a safety feature... Albeit that was an open top wrangler type I think
OP were you the guy on that excellent piston heads Custard thread with a v tasty collection??
