Hi all. I am attempting to finish my restoration of my 92 Auburn. However I cannot find a colour chart or wheel or a good enough picture of the team green colour. Does anyone know where i can find this, or had this done and knows the cocktail for mixing the colours?

Oh, and does anyone know the length difference between the CR20R and 20RX?

Thanks

I've never seen that Auburn site. Pretty cool.

Pretty cool site...except they skip everything about 1992..? I guess they just don't have anything from that year yet.

The only thing that I have for 92 is a catalog, and a strange thing, thank you for the link ripvanwinkle, it helped alot but it has also confused me lol. Now correct me if I am wrong , the top tube goes from the head tube to the seatpost tube, right? ok (just confirmation) So i measured from the beginning of the top tube at the head tube, and measured the whole thing, past the seatpost tube to the end of it that connects to the rear link. It was 22 inches?? wtf??? In that link he only speaks of 19.5" 20.5" and 21" and not 22. Now it is 21" to the bolt that connects the rear. Could this be the measurement? Am I measuring wrong? My serial number on the Auburn says 92020093 and the rear is not aluminum but is alloy. I am assuming that it is a CR20RX 92 model #93 made in February. I guess I am going to have to take it to a painter to get the colour matched. Does anyone by any chance have an Auburn Sticker set that matches the one in the picture attached? Even if they have separate stickers. I know these are going to be hard to find.

Thanks a million

Top tube measurement is from the "center" of the headtube to the "center" of the seat post tube.

I don't know much about mid-school stuff but those Auburns are pretty cool.

Post a pic if you've got it.

center of headtube to center of seatpost tube is 20 1/4 inches so that would make it a ....... lol

My best guess is that it's a 20.5.

That's a beautiful frame/bike! Would love to see it built up.

see the ones on the bay? they are up over 160.00!!!

Yup, i got outbid. That's the name of the game though. But I have never seen stickers go that high before, but then when was the last time you seen a good set like that on ebay. It is probably a good thing I didnt, from what I am understanding that colour sticker went on the blue Auburn, and the team green had the blue font with a red triangle. And I want to get as close as i possibly can while restoring this thing. There is a faint sign of team green underneath that god aweful green it was shaker canned, which gives me hope that i am on the right path! lol May the force be with us all when it comes to finding a needle in a haystack for all our rolling beauties! lol
