 77/78 Deluxe paint code 
 
 
thought I'd post this here as not sure how often people look at the paint forum. 
 
I'm after a paint code for the light ivory and yellow combination used on late bays, particularly the deluxe two tone model. 
 
I checked Samba but they don't show it so not sure if it was an Australia only colour. 
 
cheers, Lou

77 on are imported and are standard German colours.
 
 
 
 
I read it on samba, so it must be correct. 
Sometimes Volkswagen dealers sell spare parts. Amazing isn't it!

thanks Phil and Steve, 
 
I think the combination is Ivory and merino yellow. If you look at the Club VW info there are three different yellows for that period. 
 
The colour I'm after is the same as Tony Mezinas bus and the one Boris used to have when I had my White/Red 77.... 
 
Those year buses were common in the white/orange, white/red and white/green as well as the white/yellow (or maybe ivory)....

Correct. 
 
The same as Bosch catalogues are wrong and probably most other generic parts catalogues.
