DL paint code

Postby stephenwestlake » Tue Mar 18, 2025 12:44 pm

Hi,

Can anyone tell me precisely which grey colour this under-bonnet tag indicates?
'DL GREY HR36278'
On a 1968 Transit custom. I can't find DL listed anywhere. (It's had multiple re-sprays so difficult to see which was which).

Thanks,
Steve

Thanks, yes the paint code on the rating plate is 'W'.
But this is under the bonnet. I'm now thinking it must be a tag added by the custom builder, which was Jennings.
