ID'ing an SS

[Stathy]

Can someone help me to identify the owner(s) of the 2 Giulia SS's?
I'm trying to pinpoint the color code of their cars.

It's a deep blue. Absolutely stunning!

Thank you for your time!

The last picture of the SS appears to have been taken at the Nashville Alfa Convention a few years ago. Maybe someone can help you identify the owner that way? I would help you with the paint codes, but I am moving my website to another server.

Hi there,

Not sure if I am right, but it could be blu medio AR312. Despite its name, it was a rather dark blue.

See color chart though a pic on a PC might not be the best.

Thank you for this info. Good eye Christopher. I take it you've been there before?

Mbaum thanks for digging up that post on color codes. Interesting shades of blue available. I think you spotted the right one though.
I'm going to dig through the archives to see if i can find the color codes for 63 SS's

Cheers!

The first pictures show a Milan registered Giluia SS on Borrani wire wheels - interesting

I'd take a guess at Blu Olandese, or Dutch blue, AR 343. slightly darker than Blu Medio, but not as dark as Navy blue.

Either way, you could have a small amount mixed up of both & spray them onto a largish panel, like a bonnet & see which colour you prefer - quite simple & a cheap option, especially if you happen to have a spare panel for something lying around which could get a colour coat or two. I'd paint the two halves of the bonnet with the 2 colours,

Blu Medio & Blu Olandese are both stunning colours, you can't go wrong with either of them.

The second picture was taken at the Monza Autodrome at the start of the 4th edition of the Coppa Milano-San Remo which was organized from 10 to 12th March 2006.

Driver and co-pilote of the #66 car are : Formiconi and Arpesani.

Wouldn't wire wheels upset the carefully designed aerodynamics??
