Bultaco Alpina 138 paint code/color

[redandwhitebrit]

I am nearing completion on the restoration of an Alpina model 138 and am looking for the paint code, or the name of the orange/yellow paint on the side covers, and the swoosh on the tank. Any assistance or insight is appreciated.

It’s called Bultaco Bootlace Yellow and you can order it from here: https://www.rsbikepaint.com/oem-matched-motorcycle-paint-colour.php?locale=en-US&rs_colour_order_ref=37337

Ron,

Thank you for the information on this paint supplier. Are they in the UK or somewhere else? Also, a US Bultaco parts supplier, Hugh's Bultaco in New York state, thinks the correct paint color is what he calls "Hugger Orange." I believe I will order the smallest quantity of the Bootlace Yellow and see what it looks like sprayed out.

I believe they’re in the UK. Their website only states where the copyright originated. “registered at Companies House in England and Wales. Registered at CPM House, 10 Works Road, Letchworth Garden City, Hertfordshire, SG6 1LB, UK”

it also states that the prices will include “VAT”…so, I’m guessing the UK again.
