    78 GS 1000C BLUE paint needed

    Im about to kick off my summer project and finally redo the 78 1000C thats been in the storage unit for about 5 years. I have the Burgundy / Orange striped model so I want to do this one in its sisters blue color.

    What i need is someone with an original to get a scan and post the mix code..or if anyone knows a current available car color that would work as well. I have seen a few guys saying they also would like this information so if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

      There might be some confusion as to what you asked on your post, Chuck. You asked for someone "to get a can" of their blue paint and then send you the mix code. I'm assuming you meant "scan"... Either way it may be a bit of a stretch for a paint store to do it for that person without buying the product afterwards. I had the color made once and it was a perfect match but the mix code wasn't on the can, so I'm no help either.

        Chuck if you can't find anything I have a tail piece with paint in good shape I could send you if you send it back when you're done.

          yes..I probably made a typo Larry..should have said Scan. And Tom, yes that would be great. My buddy that manages the paint supply house can scan it and I will send it back immediately. I will PM you the addy.
