Ochre paint code

[koolky]

So, I have decided that I want to paint my 72 K10 Ochre (Yellow?). Can someone let me know what the paint code is for that? I have never had paint mixed from one of these old GM paint codes, will I have any problems when I go to the paint shop? Also, if you have any pictures of stock coloured Ochre trucks please post. Thanks

The commercial color is 511 for the 72 year paint Ochre code

On the page of codes and colors it says ::Actual colors may vary from the color on your screen due to monitor color restrictions..Can you believe it can be that off..LOL

Thanks for that, Thats the colour I want, but when i go to http://www.tcpglobal.com/autocolorli...truck-pg01.jpg
and look at the chipps the ochre that they list looks like bronze? I didnt want to go with the code listed and than end up with the wrong colour.

Have the paint store mix you a sample, half pint or so and do a spray out test and clear it.

Good idea. Brings me to a new thought, I was thinking of just spraying this truck with single stage paint instead of base and clear, since this colour doesnt have metalic in it shoulnd it turn out the same?
