I'm getting stuck with codes if someone could help.

HK81469-30476M
1172-18m
568-10845


I get

568=solid colour
10845=ermine white
18m=buckskin or new buckskin interior colour??
hk81469-brougham


I can't get the 30476M or the 1172

If anyone has any clues it would be appreciated

30476M = 30476th HK body out of the Melbourne (Dandenong) Plant,

1172 = GMH code for Ermine White. 10845 is the Dulux code for the paint formula, often called the shade number.

18M = Blonde Ivory & Bavere Fawn Interior

Thanks DT

Is there anything in these numbers that would give a clue on the colour of the vinyl roof?

Or being a 5 or 6 seater?

Not all factories put the vinyl roof details on the body plate. Are there any more letters towards the bottom of the plate, something like BVR (Black Vinyl Roof) or similar.

I believe that in the HK series there was only a choice of 2 coloured vinyl roofs (black or off-white). My guess is that an Ermine White car would have had a black vinyl roof.

They're all the letters on the plate so if I have a choice it has to be a black roof.


Thanks for that

Being white with off white trim, off white roof might be possible.

Time stands still once you go through the door into your factory. I had promised to take them kite flying and the peninsula is a great place for it.

I'll be down again soon I'm guessing
