Yeah, It's PPG, If you need the number let me know and I'll check, My fender is riveted, Did you buy a front or rear fender from me? The seat is one of Jerry's Z50 repro's, but I changed the cover to a more correct one, I think he has changed to the same cover also, not sure. I have another we are starting on next month and then I'm going to do my SlantGuard, Saving the best for last!

Hi Don, Yes I did get a painted rear fender from you.I would greatly appreciate PPG # for scarlet red if you have it for my next bike which is yellow #110327. I currently are in the process of restoring #107298 which I had painted yellow and white original color.The PPG yellow was $90 a pint.The seat looks great.Were you able to get the small stencil also? Did you have any problems rechroming handlebars?My guy heated them up in a tank before chroming and perch levers fell off and brazing at base of bars around mounting plate melted.Had to get them welded back on and smoothed sanded before going back for triple chroming.Heres a pic of 110327 which has rivited front fender,107298 front fender was welded.They must have changed the front fender some time between 107298 and your bike?
Thanks,
Brian J
