SPecial paint codes
 

Looking at some parts for a 72 Blazer and it has some weird paint codes. Tried a search and couldn't find anything. 4704AA, 4704AH, 4704AG. Any ideas?

Thanks

Adding the SPID. Sorry , it's a rotten pic.

Most likely was one of a batch of fleet Blazers produced for one particular customer....
perhaps a municipality...forest service...fire dept...etc...... that wanted a specific color

I looked up the California line in the SPID and it was an optional emissions test. Even back then.....

Fleet or Forest Service makes sense.

Any indication as to what color the original paint is? Any non-oem holes in the dash?

The cab interior looks white. I don’t know what holes to look for but I have pictures.

Looks like there’s a blue stripe across the top of the dash? Seems odd that white, which was available standard, would be a special order but granted there’s a myriad of shades of white. The windshield frame has a hole for a utility spot light on the rh side - supports a fleet application maybe?

My guess is a California state rig.

Could be law enforcement. Somewhere on this forum I posted a vintage photo of a K5 1st gen CA Sheriff’s rig - I’ve tried to locate the post. Will keep trying.

Got skunked. It sold before I could get the trip set up. Rats! I really just wanted the chassis anyway.
