Re: 79 Paint Codes
Step 1: Locate paint color RPO on either the SPID label or within the generic info packet at the GM Heritage Center:
https://www.gmheritagecenter.com/doc...olet-Truck.pdf I would say code 81U Cordova Brown Metallic. Step 2: Convert the GM color into a PPG or Dupont WA code, using Autocolor Library or a similar paint supplier site: http://www.autocolorlibrary.com/default.aspx ...which seems to not be working right. So we are done for now, until the site starts working right, or unless someone can chime in with a comparable site. K

Re: 79 Paint Codes
Awesome Keith, thanks! Now the task is to see what that means to paint suppliers over here in Northern Ireland. Hopefully they can cross reference it somehow. I can always scan it if Im stuck. Appreciate your help so far!!
