@lowlight, Only tourist delivery westies and the initial batch of fully imported early bay westies were painted in Germany. From mid-1970 model year, they were assembled and painted at Uitenhage.
Sean, as mentioned this weekend, Gerhard has a colour swatch to do a paint match for you of South African Java Green (1968-69) and Dark Green (1970-71).
More info later, but a significant breakthrough has just been made regarding VWSA paint and upholstery colour names and codes ...

Sambas in South Africa are good for only 2 things: showing off and sunburn.
