1975 CS1 paint color help?

Post by OzSpider »

Hi All,

I have a 75 CS1, currently external red with a creame engine bay??, but not its original colour. The original colour was a blue based on what I can see underneath the rear seats and I'm thinking of going back to original.

Could anyone help with the list of potential original colour codes for a 1975? The glove box lid with the sticker disappeared during previous owner's RHD conversion.

thanks
Derek
Cheers

Derek, try this website:

http://paintref.com/paintref/index.shtml

Click on the link for Fiat, then for 1975, and you get 48 Fiat colors for that year. This is all Fiat models, so not all of these colors would have appeared on spiders.

On some years the paint code is on a decal inside the trunk(boot) lid. Mine was still there in my '80 but I suspect most are long gone.
