1972 Tangier Orange paint codes???

[Firebirdjones]

What are the paint codes for 72 Tangier Orange? I need both the code off the SPID and the PPG code that matches that.

What is confusing the matter is that PPG isn't using the factory GM names for these colors nor the SPID numbers so a match cannot be made for certain.

The previous thread on this had the colors from the PPG chart with codes, but they listed about 4-5 oranges and called them all yellow,,,PFFF

I know I can't have the only Tangier Orange 72 blazer in here.

The code on the spid for Tangier Orange should be #516, I just called a buddy that sells PPG paint & body supplies here in town and gave him that #516 code and it pulled up as PPG #60156 in his computer, took him all of about a minute. He also added that unlike alot of the other older factory colors, this one was used for a while and is still available in all of the PPG product lines to match any budget. Mel
