It does appear to be very similar to Pastel, although if you saw them side by side, Condor would be slightly more white, I believe.
The color Condor was from the 1960-61 Porsche 356 color charts below you can see the special color chart for the 356's. I have not seen the Pastel Yellow but it looks very close if anything I would love to see the car in real I think thats the best thing at the same time I will ask Porsche for more info. The color code for the Condor then was 6010 I hope this helps

Thanks Condor. The chart I was looking at didn't have all the 356 colors. But I see it now. There was also a Champagne Yellow. Examples of both are below.

Condor

BTW, Pastel Yellow was a 996 standard color.

Fly yellow isn't a Porsche color though. It's a Ferrari color, "giallo fly".

Here's Porsche "light yellow"

Interesting Jaber, and both the 356 and CGT seem to be the most sought after right now!! It is a little bit of irony!!

Awesome work again Steve! That signal CGT is probably Mike Valentine's, I think I read it was the only one made in Signal Yellow.
