Aintgotitmusthaveit Posted 29May, 2019 Report Share Posted 29May, 2019 My buddy and I have recently gone 1/2s in a 1977 3.0liter 930 turbo. It’s an Aussie delivered car that’s been hidden for a while and we’ve now got the “widow maker” back on the road. Porsche Australia have told me the interior color was originally blue (but now painted black) with a dress Mackenzie beige interior. I have identified this car as being built adjacent in serial number to a martini car (last photo). I can see the original blue on the edge of the door cards and it seems to match this martini car interior photo. In the parabolica press 930 3.0 turbo book, It identifies the color 3AG see photo which was a special leather color for the 930 according to my parabolica press 3.0 turbo book m I’m trying to find out exactly what this color was to coordinate an interior restoration. I’m in contact with world upholstery as well as classic9leathershop who have both suggested I send them a sample Also if anyone has experience sourcing trimming from abroad or a great local contact please let me know. or if you want any details on your car from my book let me know.

Zelrik911 Posted 29May, 2019 Report Share Posted 29May, 2019 Yellow carpets ?????? I wonder who bought this 930 new in 1977 - it must have been a Sydney car as it would have been too way-out for conservative Melbourne. Scott930 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aintgotitmusthaveit Posted 29May, 2019 Author Report Share Posted 29May, 2019 Ha ha. Agree Would’ve been pretty wild. It actually was delivered new out of south Australia. So too groovy for even Sydney. Scott930 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epilot Posted 30May, 2019 Report Share Posted 30May, 2019 Seat inlays in ‘dress Mackenzie beige’ , Mackenzie tartans are generally blue and yellow or beige and blue, that is going to be one wild interior 😳 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreamr Posted 30May, 2019 Report Share Posted 30May, 2019 Have you tried to remove the black paint? It might give you a bigger swatch to play with ...
