I purchased a roof and van sides separately from my 110 to change it from a pickup.
How do I know what colour the white is so I can match the wheels, if I don’t know the vehicle they came from?
Good one heh?
The only thing I can think is to get a couple of Halfords cans and do a test spray.

My research tellS me the following.
Limestone (early)
LR005732 Alaska white.
LR005710 Also Alaska white.
STC3828VA NAL 603 Chawton White
RTC4058VT NCM 354 Ivory White
RTC6870VT NUC 456 White

so there’s a few whites of this era to choose from

Not knowing the age of your 110, as a guide use the following as a rule of thumb;

Wheel Colour -

Limestone was used on Series vehicles and is a cream/beige colour.

90's and 110's up to about 1990 used Ivory White (also known as Chamonix White & Davos White) and then they changed to Alpine White.

Body colours are as per the links supplied by other folk above…

hope that helps…

Cheers slomofo - that’s really useful.

My 110 is 1986, but I don’t know the age of the roof and sides I have. It’s the wheels that need matching to the roof so I think I’ll get a can of ivory and see if it’s the same.

Yes, but I wanted to get the rims powder coated so it’s not that easy.

@congo181 , why powder coat? A properly buzzed back, cleaned/degreased, zinc primered and multi-layered painted wheel will last years longer than a powder coat.

Well…. I hadn’t really thought about that.
I suppose I will have to paint the roof at some point. I could do the rims then. I guess I wanted to get them done and in the vehicle. It seems I’m just getting a longer list of things that are 15’C dependent.
