Title: 212 Colour
Post by: mattwithers on March 29, 2020, 09:17:22

Hi,
I bought TAZ 212 last year & am currently working on it, no hurry !! It needs a bits of paint touching up, Please can someone help with the paint code ?
I can't get to the engine at the moment as it's on a ramp but the vin is SA9AC2120YAO17529 with engine no CRSL009529
Thanks,
Matt.

have you tried Rodney Thomas (CRS Registrar) or Constant Wagner (Post 2000 AC Cars Registrar)?

Matt-one of the issues I think is AC would paint any colour the original customer wanted.
However I was looking thru my paperwork and I found a one page vehicle specific inspection report for my CRS  where they run thru a check list and at the top is paint colour , followed by paint code.

Have you checked thru all your paperwork to see if you have this sheet?

I dont know if the factory kept copies of the originals,

Its got a few other torque figure settings ie steeing wheel nut  50lbs.ft,Steering UJ 21lbs/ft ,top wishbone inner fixing kitx 4 -180lbs/ft, a question on ford adjustable steering column, or rover steering column fitted, key numbers, cobra imobiliser/alarm data.

Incidentally on the CRS/SC212 body as its carbon fibre the weave often shows thru at certain angles (I assume this is not the touchup you refer to?
