Original Colour?

Featured Replies

Hey,

I will be painting my Z soon and i was wondering if anyone knew the orignal colours a '75 260z came out in, or perhaps a site wwhich lists them. Thanks

Raven:

Check out the link provided below. The ZHome.com site has TONS of valuable information, and a great Mail list covering all Z's.

"Raven",

if you can tell us the age/ year of your car, I have paint chips covering most production years. I might be able to help. Do you still have the paint code sticker readable on the radiator support panel,drivers side.

Cheers

Steve

Hi Raven,

I'm working on a gallery of early Z cars painted the original colors. I don't have many of the 280Z/260Z colors yet but I've got a few. See Zhome.com for specific years but you can get an idea of how it'll look on my page http://www.utdallas.edu/~perdue/paintcodes.html

I'm still looking for pics to finish out my gallery!

ps. looks like we're having server probems today so you may have to try again later...

Thanks guys, i was sorta thinking of a yellow, but from the info on zhome.com my '75 260z will have to go without an original colour, ohwell, thanks for the info.

In 1975 the Datsuns had a "SUNSHINE YELLOW" paint code #019

If you go to http://www.sherwin-automotive.com/ you can look up the actual color formulas. Hope this helps
