Re: Color code help
I don't see a cream color listed in Chip Charts for the 70 trucks. It must not be an original color.

Re: Color code help
Is there a paint supplier that can scan it and get a code?I know the place I get paint has a gismo that`ll scan the color and give a formula.

Re: Color code help
The few I've had done have been very good. TMy paint dealer was able to match paint on the front bumper, hood and RH fender of a Olds Cutlass a few years back using the scanner.

Re: Color code help
I replaced the hood on my`92 GMC.It`s a factory pack from a zillion years ago and never changed...a fleet color.It`s Woodland Green,has been offered as a standard color choice from time to time over the years,also known as dark green.Well anyway,I couldn`t believe they couldn`t find the color,even with the code.So,they scanned it and it matches perfectly.
