L581 Cloud White pictures/reference

[vicpolky]

Hello there, does anyone have any pictures of buses with original L581 Cloud White bumpers and/wheels, or an original paint chip of the colour? I'd really appreciate it

According to this chart it was the standard colour of bumpers and wheels from Aug 67 to July 68

Cheers! :beerchug:

Wheels, bumpers and front badge were Cloud White until 1971 MY (August 1970) when they changed to Pastel White.

My bumpers and roof are cloud white ... the Code is L581.

My wheels are powered coated to as close as possible.

This is cloud white, resprayed recently. Cellulose is from paints4u.com, which in my limited experience, seem to be a good match and decent quality.

Thanks for the pics everyone. Thanks Matty74, I wrote the code wrong twice even though it was right in front of me!

Where did the snippet of colour chart in post #1 come from?

Thanks sparkywig. I haven’t seen that particular doc before.

They're taken from sales brochures, so don't list all the colours available during that model year.
