Title: Alfa 75 Paint Code - RED
Post by: Mark P on January 20, 2009, 03:16:41 PM
Hi guys,

I need to buy some paint to touch up some rust repairs, but can't find a paint code anywhere.  Is there one?  Or do I just walk in to the auto paint store and ask for 1986 Alfa 75 paint - RED of course!

Also, any tips on good places to get a gearbox looked at in Melbourne would be handy...little bit of a rattle in neutral.  ?bearing? ???

I think it's on the underside of the boot lid on a 75.

if you go to a paint mob (ie perrows) they will colour match it to current condition (ie from fading ect)
