I had mine painted last fall. The original paint code sticker was #240 so I went to the Automotive paint store and they pulled up the Datsun code #240 from 1977. It does not have the blueish tint that you are looking for. The only difference is that I have a two stage paint vs the original acrylic. I suspect your PO had it repainted to his/her liking vs keeping the original paint.

Note this article and auction are from May 2014. That car has my name on it. Literally. And several others here as well. Thanks at least for the reminder of that special time back at the run-offs in 2013.

EFI is still in the works and getting closer . Intake, fuel rail, injectors , TB , all acquired . Just a few last efforts on the Mikunis before I sell them off. It's been a fun ride but it's about time to move on.

Just got back from Japan and finished uploading this video of a ride in Kats' 432. The condition of this car is amazing and its good to see it being driven and enjoyed. The guy in that black ferrari was really gawking at the 432. I can only imagine what it must have been like to be a cop back in 1970 chasing down speeders in one of these beasts. Thanks Kats for graciously sharing your cars and your knowledge of these cars over the years. Youtube video

My 97 Subaru Outback (Spruce Green Pearl) is darned close to what you have. It tends to shift to a bluish green when the light hits it at the right angle. Probably the pearl in it. I think yours is a stock color with extra flake. I don't remember that much flake in the factory paint jobs.

Nekid...

No Z's in this portrait but all in the family nonetheless

My interest was in collecting the OEM colors (chips) for reference. I had a small project where the availability of very-good color references would have been helpful, but it was not critical. I'm not color replicating for a car-repaint so haven't gone the paint shop route. It had seemed that with all the energy perviously extended by others in the Z-world that a collection of accurate samples would have made it into electronic format by now but it seems not ... if I do come across good representations I can share then I will make them available through all our normal Z channels. Best Wishes ... Mike
