Paint code or name help :)

Afternoon

I'm in the process if re painting my bay and getting through this crap paint to get it back to what it was,
I'm trying to the find the code or name of the paint used my 79 bay,
Now I've been told it may be Neptune blue.

I will try and get a pic up later
Does any body know how many types of blue there was and codes?

Neptune Blue is L50K or it might beReef blue L57H. http://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/info/colorstype2.php

 

Very helpful, thank you

 

the m plate will tell you, i think.

 

I can't find the og m plate, it seems to be missing with a lot of things to do with the bus

 

You know on a '79 it'll be hidden under the dash on the air box?

 

Yea I knew it was under there but when taking the dash out for resray realised that it was missing

 

The colour code should be on a silver foil label behind the passenger seat if RHD.
