Paint color name and code please

Post by ctrick »

Hello-I have a 83 Spider and am looking for my paint name and code to buy some touch-up. The label on the underside of the trunk lid is gone. The car is a "light blue" or "baby blue" color. Any help would be appreciated. Chris

Does it look like mine? You can click on the link below my name to see better pix of my car. Mine is painted Azzurro Blue. Can't be certain of the code off the top of my head, but I am pretty sure it is 474.

Thanks. I was correct that Azzurro (Azure Blue) was paint code 473, in 1982 http://www.fiatspider.de/index.php?opti ... &Itemid=95.

But it looks like Pininfarina changed the code number in 1983 to #8.338.40 http://www.fiatspider.de/index.php?opti ... &Itemid=98

My guess is that it is the same exact color and only represents a different numbering scheme by Pininfarina when they took over production from Fiat.

Oops! You know: 220, 221 -- whatever it takes!

I did provide the link to the correct info.
