Paint colour and scheme

[Peterp]

Good afternoon all,
I’ve been trying to find out the colour name/code for a TV175 Ive recently bought, and is it painted in an original Lambretta/innocenti scheme. My first TV was plain white/cream with base red panels etc.
Mine is white/cream with ochre panels and horn casing, I understand by google that the normal scheme was mudguard, panels and horn casing were all the same colour? Is this correct, sorry to look like a thicko but I’ve only just returned to scootering after many years. My first TV was only nine years old when I bought it for £50.00 so quite new and didn’t need repairs and refurb.
Thanks everyone.
Pete

Hi Pete,

In reference to Innocenti paint colours / for Lambretta models.
These are all listed in the back of 'Stickys' Book. 'The Complete Spanner's Manual.
Its a very helpful read for any owner wishing to get involved with Lambretta Scooter maintainance etc.

* PLEASE NOTE that there is also a Coral Red 63 8046 ' as there is some uncertainty as to if this colour was used as opposed to the 'Ruby Red'.
