[rico]

Any idea what the color a Sears blue badge paint should be?

Are any these the right one?

* Stone White: MaxMeyer 1.298.8710
* Blue-White: MaxMeyer 1.268.0110
* Ivory: MaxMeyer 1.268.3901

[firej]

sorry I have yet to post them I will get them up soon...

what year bluebadge Rico?

[SteveScoot]

Hi I'm wondering what paint codes are applicable to my dark gray (original paint) 84 PK 125 S Automatica:



I need to touch it up in a few places and want to be sure I match the original color.

Thanks!

[firej]

have it scanned at a auto paint shop scan the spot under the glove box that would be the best thing to do as none or not much UV would of hit that spot...

PKs had a crazy paint range because paint was made in many different spots for the factorys Spain colors were different the German colors

[SteveScoot]

FireJ, I'm in the process of finding out what European country my scooter was used in. Are you saying that these PK's were BUILT in Spain and Germany, or rather built in Italy but exported for sale to Spain and Germany?

Anyway, I found out that the first PK Automaticas in 83-84 only came in two colors from the factory -- dark grey and royal blue. So I wonder if Vespa ever published paint codes for those two colors.

Short of that, I'll follow your advice -- thanks!

[junglizt1210]

Where can I go to get touch up paint? I have a 1973 50 Special which is red... so I'm guessing these two could be the colour I need:

1969 Vespa 50 Special

* Chromium Yellow: MaxMeyer 1.298.2933
* Coral Red: MaxMeyer 1.298.5811
* Silver: MaxMeyer 2.268.0108
* (from 1972) Red: MaxMeyer 1.298.5847
* (from 1972) White: MaxMeyer 1.298.1715
* (from 1973) Racing Red: MaxMeyer 1.298.5806
* (from 1975) Katmandu Red: MaxMeyer 1.298.5875
* (from 1975) Tenerife Red : MaxMeyer 1.298.5870
* (from 1976) Coral Red: MaxMeyer 1.298.5880
* (Fork, Hub, Flywheel, etc.) Aluminum: MaxMeyer 1.268.0983
* Inside Gray Primer: MaxMeyer 8012M

I don't own a car so sorry if this is a dumb question, my local Halfords is rather small and they only have touch up stuff for cars which is all pre-packaged. Also, how much am I looking at for a bit of touch up paint?

[SteveScoot]

That's a beautiful scoot, Junglizt! Would you mind posting a picture of it from behind? I wanna see what style license plate you have on the back. We Americans are intrigued by those. Thanks!

[Rally 180]

Just to add

Vespa Nuova:
Met light Blue (Max Meyer 126801110)

Horrible colour so I'm having my Nuova pillar box red and black instead

A mate of mine had one the same colour as that back in the early '80s. It was really nice.

Might even be the same scooter; who knows?

[rs102890]

Hi guys I'm really struggling to find paint for my project. It's a pk 125 from 1983 the code is 621 and I'm pretty sure it's just called red or rosso.

And anyone suggest where to find it the internet has been totally fruitless so far. I want a couple of spray cans ideally.

Any help greatly received. Cheers all.
