71 280sl Paint Code 350H
« on: October 27, 2012, 17:37:34 »
Hi Everyone...I am new to the Forum having just joined today...I am seriously considering the purchase of a 71 280sl . The color is listed as 350H, medium blue. Does anyone have a photo of what the medium blue color should look like? Photos I have received show it to be near royal blue to almost navy...any help is appreciated...Thanks.

The photos are correct, it is a royal blue going on navy blue.  see

Also have a look around the Photo Gallery and you will see some that are the 350H.  I think 'blue pagoda by the sea' os one.

Sal,

Welcome to the Group...350H is a great color. When you can, browse through forums/posts that you believe may be if personal interest and also check out the "Technical Manual" plus use the Search Tool at will. Its a great way to zero in on specifc questions and of course, what you dont find, post questions as you just did!
