Need original paint help!
My 64 is missing the trim tag that should be on the drivers side kick panel. Is there any other way I can figure out what the original paint was? Majority of the truck is in primer and some yellow is showing through but I have no idea if it had been re painted sometime during its life. Attached is a picture of the yellow I was talking about and the vin tag. Thanks guys!

Go around the truck and carefully look for places that may have escaped the primer. Quickie prime jobs often leave trim/bezels in place so orig color may show behind them. Try lifting part of the filler neck gasket enough to see under it.

519 GM color code, 549 for two tone, 64-68 Dark Yellow, if it turns out to be original. Same as 62-63 Yuma Yellow.

Re: Need original paint help!
There is yellow behind filler neck gasket. There is a lot of yellow showing through in a lot of place on the cab. I just wish there was another way to definitively tell me the OG color. Thanks for your help, I was hoping you would chime in
