Re: 66 C10 White paint Code (Roof Color)

If you're not restoring a truck to factory colors, then the sea of whites is at your disposal. I'd submit that while the factory 526 ivory is correct for your original question - if you're doing a non-stock primary body color, you might want to make sure the ivory "looks ok" with it before you start squirting. I think what I'm trying to say is that some non-stock custom primary colors might look better with the brighter white (i.e. code 521 or an off the shelf white). Ivory doesn't exactly go well with everything. If you're using a factory primary color, then disregard this post and definitely use 526 ivory
