Title: original Vignale colours Post by: davidalanbatt on 10 March, 2008, 11:10:28 PM My wife's Vignale is about to have a bare metal respray, and I need some information on colours. The car is a 1967 1800cc, which at the moment is painted in 170 Argento Nevada. The car was originally silver, and it will be kept that colour.
Is there a paint code i.d. on the vehicle anywhere? Does anyone have a colour swatch card for Vignales of this period? This is a chance to get the colour just right! Thanks for your help again, Paul Title: Re: original Vignale colours Post by: ncundy on 10 March, 2008, 11:44:47 PM I have a colour chart from about 1966 and it lists the following for the Flavia. It has no codes but does have a sample colour key and where else the colour was used (so you could check the code against the same description on other models):
Black (shared with all Lancia models) Newmarket (silver-only available on the sedan and convert.) Capennelle (bright red - only available on the Flavia convert.) Saratoga (white - available on all Lancia models) Auteuil (metallic silver/grey - only available on the Flavia Convert) Lancia Blue (available on all Lancia models) I guess it would be either Newmarket or Auteuil, but I have only Fulvia codes and neither colour were available for Fulvias. If you have (or can get hold of) a Flavia spare parts catelogue the colours should be in the front. The chart is the official colour chart from the UK Lancia Concessionaires at Alperton. There is no date but it lists "available cars" which are (to help you date it): Flaminia Coupe Flavia Zagato Flavia Convrt Flavia Coupe Flavia Sedan Fulvia Coupe Fulvia 2C Sedan Title: Re: original Vignale colours Post by: fay66 on 11 March, 2008, 12:19:54 AM My Fulvia " Catalogo Parti Di Ricambio" for Fulvia 818. immediately after the index on page xxx1, list Grigio Newmarket, code, Lancia-6984461. then supplier 847-101314DP, the DP signifying "Dupont"

http://www.glasurit.com/COLOR/COLOR-ONLINE/ It gives the following for Auteuil: ARGENTO AUTEUIL MET 0670 ARGENTO AUTEUIL MET 16287 To search go to the "search for formula" page and just put in Lancia, set everything else to "all" except the colour class. Auteuil is under "grey". If you take the Glasurit code to your frendly painter I am sure he will be able to find all the alternatives ;D Title: Re: original Vignale colours Post by: ncundy on 11 March, 2008, 08:32:20 AM Looking at the colours, Auteuil is very close to what you already have so I suspect the colour you want is that that Brian as found.
Title: Re: original Vignale colours Post by: inthedark on 11 March, 2008, 01:15:59 PM Normally you will find the paint code sticker either in the glovebox or on the inside of the boot lid.
if not any decent paint/body shop should be able to use a ppl/max meyer/silkens or glasurit scheme to identify the colour. Jiff Title: Re: original Vignale colours Post by: davidalanbatt on 12 March, 2008, 07:51:40 PM Thanks guys for your input.
