General Typical X1/9 issues?

[mhonkieys]

I just picked it up, the original color appears to be compitition orange, i'd like to know if anyone has any information on the original paint jobs as i'd like to return it back to its glory.

I would start by finding a new front hood and a replacement panel for the nose. The nose could be knocked back out and repaired with some filler but I don't think you are ever going to get all those dents out of the hood.

If you are going back to the original paint colour the code should still be in the boot on a green/silver foil sticker attached to the lid.

The codes should correspond to one of these charts:
