911T Cars for Sale

[Frank Beck]

From that point on I concluded that an early 911 in very good condition looks good in any color (even sand beige ;-) )

Ok, now you're just being ridiculous.

So lets say you have your choice of any color for a long hood....what would it be?

[Frank Beck]

Me?
Ixnay on anything fecal or boring. That includes Sand Beige and possibly even Light Ivory.


Just because I own a Sepia 71S coupe (Now proudly dressed in Silver) and Light Ivory 67 coupe (Still Light Ivory and the last one to get picked for prom) doesn't influence my opinion.

Question was for you and others that have an opinion...which is most folks. Would like to see if a certain color rises to the top. Not too many colors I don't like. My 72T is a light yellow(Helhab) and love it.

[Frank Beck]

Ha!
Like asking what color hair looks best on a woman.

If I were you I would start a new thread. And then wait for it to go crazy.

The factory odd ball colors are making a come back.
Ugly is the new hot. When restored, they can look very nice and very period. Period is good.

I have a sand beige restoration project that i was going to color change because I initially considered it baby puke....
But now i consider it interesting and it stands out in the crowd.
I have since seen some really nice examples. (alot lot of sepia brown and sand beige cars were color changed throughout their lives, thus making them kind of rare.)

All the bright colors have been played out and the reds, black, silvers and whites are common.

interesting blues are winners in my books.

What's with guys NOT changing color on their Sepia Brown cars?

BTW: Where are all the Sepianista and the new Porsches? Since it's such a FANTASTIC color you would think at least ONE brownthusiast would order a new 911 in Sepia "Paint to Sample".

Or would it be Paint to Stool Sample?

or as in loaded baby diaper
