Production Numbers by color? Mimosa Yellow...

[jramsey85]

I just bought a 1976 300D (W115) in Mimosa Yellow (DB-618)...I know the color is kind of rare but I'm wondering how rare...Is there a source out there with the production numbers and their colors?

The car is in bad rust shape but fantastic mechanicaly...no blow by whatsoever and mostly all original parts, including the radiator. Also has only one tiny crack in the dash...WOAH!...owner said he always rubbed Vaseline on it. Only bought it because my 76 240D (W115) motor froze due to a oil coolant hose busting on the highway. I'll be switching the doors and some outer panels to replace the rust...I'll also be switching out the interior from the 240D to the 300D. The 300D is tan...meh...and the 240D is blue...yay...So I think the Mimosa Yellow on blue would be pretty wild...

I believe, there isn't such source...
But wait, there is one and it is a Daimler's archive.


Yellow over blue interior must looks interesting and period correct.
