Paint colors

Postby eyeguy » Thu Feb 04, 2016 8:53 pm

Hi All, I'm working on an Li/3 125 1962. I am told that there are three colors to chose from for original restore. Is this correct? Would you know the colors?

Thanks

For a 1962 model I think there were only two colours available...............I am prepared to be corrected.
Grey...Lechler code 8068.
Sky Blue...Lechler code 8035.

This not intended as a contradiction of anything already said:

Lifted from Vittorio Tessara’s Lambretta Restotation Guide, (so acknowledged), the two colours are:

Iseo Blue 8035 & Beige*

*“colour not available” which I take to mean the reference number is unknown to the Author

I hope this helps.
