Special Order Paint Codes, 356/ 911/ 912/ 912E |
 A special order color 912 is quite rare! Porsche offered a
palette of numerous "special paint" colors, however the October
1967 Christophorus magazine reported less than one percent of 1966
Porsches were delivered in such colors. Earlier 356
colors were still available, plus colors which would prove to be
popular standard colors in subsequent years. For example, an
1966 912 could ordered Champagne Yellow like a 356, as well as
Burgundy Red like a 1968 911 or 912. Other colors were always
special order; PCA - Rocky Mountain Region member David Mauk's
father-in-law was the original owner of his 1969 Canary Yellow 912
Coupe; click on the window sticker image to view see the "special
paint" notation.
The original paint color and vehicle identification number for a
specific car was stamped on a chassis plate, then riveted to the
left-hand door hinge post below the chassis number.
For 1976 912Es, the paint number should be on the middle of the
plate, in a three digit (color code) - one digit (coachbuilder) -
one digit (paint manufacturer) format. In lieu of
that plate, owners can request a Porsche Cars North America
Certificate of Authenticity
that includes the original paint code and much more information.
For 1967-1969 and 1976 model year 912s, additional prefix and suffix
designations may be attached to the paint colors. For example, a
prefix number 97- signifies that the original paint was 140 degree C
/ 284 degree F 'baking paint', oven cured with all heat sensitive
parts removed. Original paint manufacturers are designated by
suffix letters: L=Lechler
G=Glasurit (See also
