Paint Colors Anyone

I have a '68 C10 and need help finding the correct paint codes. The tag in the glove box in unreadable. Does anyone have the correct codes for the light (not teal but close) green and white? I have attached a photo of the truck's cab. These are factory colors.

Thanks in advance to any and all who help!

Re: Paint Colors Anyone

Same exact scheme as on my '72. The factory colors were #2208 (518) Medium Green and #2185(521) white.
that is what I repainted it with.

Re: Paint Colors Anyone

The 521 White is correct but, the Light Green for your '68 would be 503. 518 Medium Green wasn't used until 1970.

Follow this link and look for the navy blue section and select the year/make of your truck and it will take you to the colors that were available in '68. Your truck is running the same colors (light green/white w/ different combo) as my '69; great color option IMO.

If you didn't know already, you can look on autocolorlibrary.com to get the PPG code which Six Pack Bee posted
