Paint Color Help
Im getting ready to paint my truck and i need help figuring out what the originla color is. First i need to know what color white the roof should be. In my paint book theres Neutral, Polar White and just White.
Also the truck is a 1980 k10 silverado. it was brown. I think its cordova brown, but it doesnt show that color for 1980. theres brown met. and dark camel met. in the color book. the code in the glove box says 001 special pant ca. this is a picture under the carpet, thanks.

Re: Paint Color Help
Hard to tell by the pic. They had a Dark Camel Metallic in 1980. Pic of my 1980 K30 in Burnt Orange Metallic. They had a Frost White in 80 also.

Re: Paint Color Help
It is Dark Camel, if you search the treads I got someone else on the board the actual paint code, I believe it is 46, but I can be positive. I can check when I go home this evening. I had mine painted the same color.
