[T3] Paint

[Keith Park]

Some reason I don’t remember Alaska blue metallic.
I remember turkis, my silver of course, Nutria, that pink... cant remember the name of that.
I gotta look at the color cards again!

That s Alaska blue metallic, and is a  73 colour.   Code is L 96B.  VW produced several metallic colours that year, including the silver like Keith s!
