Photo Request: Pazific (an early dark blue)

[DavinSF]

This was the info I got regarding my new project:

"The BMW 1600 VIN 1518687 was manufactured on March 3rd, 1967 (so it’s a 1967 model) and delivered on March 10th, 1967 to the BMW importer Hoffman Motors Corp. in New York City. The original colour was Pazific, paint code 039."

I've never even heard of Pazific, much less seen it. Anyone got a pic? I've searched. . .

Davin,

I was just looking at that color for my 02 print. It's spelled Pacific in the color chart. Looks very very dark...

Ah! That explains why my 'find' function didn't find it with the German spelling. Thanks Ray. Still would love to see a pic if anyone out there has one.

I'd love to see some photo's. I've always liked the color when I look a the color chart, but I've never seen a 2002 in Pacific.

Info that I have shows the 2004 Owner (Richard Scheer) quoting it as Pacific. It was having an M3 motor fitted at that time.

You can click on the photos to enlarge them, but they will appear with a watermark.

Thanks to Tom Jones:

Pazifikblau.... Looks like it's a color that dates from the '50s....
