All Dino Colors -post 'em here

Yes indeed, it is Blue Chiaro 106-A-38. Must be an early 308 GT4. Congrats for finding this rare color.

 

Here is a photo of a 308 GT/4, US version at the factory. Maybe the same color?

No definitely not. Look at Omgjon's pic, it is a light green.

 

don't forget Verde Bahram 2.443.546. Only two Dinos are supposed to be sprayed by the Factory in this colour (beside three Daytonas).

 

here are photo's of bleu chiaro and blu chiaro.

the dino vintage paint book has "bleu chiaro" and it is a light blue/green metallic color. i have pulled the same vintage blue dino for refference

the late 70's paint book has "blu chiaro" and it is damn near the same as blu dino.

all of these colors are metallics.

We both have the same paint books, thank you.

 

Well, I know it is not a 246, but it is the same paint code so here is are some pics of my Dino 308gt4 in the correct / original Glidden Salchi Eurolac Blu Chiaro, 106-A-38. I have the paint chip book for this period and I can verify that this *IS* Blu Chiaro. I think the confusion comes from the fact that a)if you mix paint to this code using modern paints you get a dark blue and b)in the eighties Blu Chiaro was completely different color. Take a look at this pics - I think this shoud answer all questions but I welcome comments.

Thanks al lot.

The color is not as bad as I suggested, and it is very rare. Don't change it - maybe I have to do this with my Dino Blue 246, I'll think about it.

 

beautiful car alex. you can see the "greenish" qualities in the color on photos 3 and 4

 

Thanks very much - means alot coming from one of the 246 cognescenti.

 

wow, not only is this a great thread, there is some super rare info coming to light!

this place never ceases to impress!

That is a pretty almost silver! And the 308gt4 is the unusual blue/green I had seen on an Asian post.

 

in less esteemed circles it is also refrred to as "Healey blue"

 

A Leventhal's third photo really shows that color in a great light. It actually looks like aquamarine. I think it would look very good on a Dino. Would you say it is fairly close to Hex#4 or Hex#6? http://www.colorcombos.com/color-scheme-172.html

 

The color differs extremely depending on the light from a dark silver to a light blue, very interesting and "live" a very nice color. Had the chance to buy this car, missed it!

 

We believe this colour is Ingrid. Car is incredible Australian Example.

Remember, Grigio Ingrid is a modern color, introduced around 1998 on the 456M GT. Based on a unique color with the same name for the "Bergman Ferrari". Seemed that this color had it's sources at GM.

In my mind the car on the pics is Marrone.

 

I once owned and probably still do own a collection of swatches and the collection was labelled, dino colors. I will look for it, and try and take pictures of it later today or tomorrow.

 

Possible. Seems to be no regular Dino color.
