paint color number

I'm painting my truck blue and white. I have the paint number for the blue and we have trimmed out the firewall and fender and hood, but I need to know a paint number for the white for the top. I used 507 Marathon Blue/ Skyline Blue for body and I have an interior color of 506, but I need to know the number of the white for the top. Thanks for the help.

...can I be honest?

Nobody's gonna notice what number white paint you have.

They're just going to notice you have a 67/72 pickup truck!

Re: paint color number

537 is the paint code for light blue with white roof
Light blue by itself is 507

Re: paint color number

All three blues in 68 (506/507/508) that had a white top (i.e. RPO 541/537/538) would have had an off white roof - paint code 526 from the factory. Also called Ivory as Mark mentioned above. (Ditzler code 8290, Dupont Code 4195-L) It's a fairly noticeable different shade of white than the 69+ 521 code white.
