Folks,

I think Juli is rather reffering to 'Assuan Brown', or 'Aswan Brown' (as
spelled in ETKA).  Code L 0H8B01 (touch up stick) or L 0H8B03 (can).
Available at the dealer, I just ordered them yesterday.

Panama brown, merian brown, havana brown, agata brown are also listed in
ETKA, but I don't know what they look like, or if '84 Westies were
available in these shades of browns...

�ric
'84 Westy Aswan Brown (or Asswipe brown, as Chris once put it...)
