V700 Red Tank Color Code
« on: March 29, 2017, 07:56:46 AM »
The parts for my 68 V700 are at the painter, I' taking it back to stock, red tank silver everything else. I gave him the paint codes from This Old Tractor and he sent me this picture yesterday...

It's called Piedmont red, DBU 4240 and it's a too dark IMHO, does anyone have a more accurate code for this red?
All the pictures I find on line so, the accuracy of the color is questionable but, most of them are along this line...

Hey Joe , perhaps Geodoc has the paint code as his V700 pic is posted on "Show me your Guzzi ' on this board.

Mark Etheridge pointed me in the right direction...


I think it looks pretty good!
