Does anyone know the colour of this van, any info would be great, i have tried a few paint shops and even contacted house of kolor but no one can help.
Thanks

Ooo ooo - I know - it's Orange !!! Or, if you're artistically inclined you could call it Apricot...

Pretty sure it'd be a custom mix....looks VERY close to Pantone 172 C... http://www.boyantonprinting.com/pantoneswatchbook.pdf
(I deal with print and photo colours rather than paint colours, but Pantone is pretty universal)

take a good copy of your photo to a paint supplier and get them to colour match it ,easy as, I did it with my fuel flap as the inside colour is what i wanted

Chop Top VW 路

Hi paulc1964au, yeah thats the colour i want to paint my car, i've wanted to do a beetle in that colour for a very long time and now the time has come.

I taking the colour to a painter but because its a picture only it was very hard for them to match.

I will have to keep a look out for your bug as i only live down the road from you

sure mate, it should have all the runing gear finished within three weeks, then the interior then the paint..If I find the colour 馃ゲ

Wouldn't you paint before you fit out especially the interior as the roof lining has to be removed due to all the windows and rubber being removed?

any photos of your project?

Chop Top VW 路

the interior would be fitted last ,but i meant i would be taking the seats out so that they can be retrimmed
