Yes, RPO code for your paint job is on the spid. 3 digits. If you have more than 3 digits, it's the 3 digits approx in the middle of the code. It's also on the build sheet.

60156 is a Ditzler code for the GM 516 "Omaha Orange" or a true orange.
The GM use goes back to the thirties. It is commomly seen on commercial equipment, tree trucks and road maintenance trucks.
