do any of your wheels have the original paint on them? if so i'd take them to a shop and have it matched. chances are the paint codes won't be accurate. went through it on the wheels for our dart and our d100. i even used a color map chart to match the white for my wheels and the formula data they listed must have been wrong because it was nowhere close.. luckily its a good body shop that did my wheels and all he had to do is add some black to the mix to get a perfect natch.. i have the spray card and all in my files now so if i need the color again i'm good to go..

Yes, I have four wheels with the correct paint on them, I suppose someone could probably match it if I had to.

can try those paint codes.. get the paint and try it on a spray out card first to see how it matches.. i can tell ya the paint code didn't match for the wheels on our dart. the painter had to mix his own to get it as close as he did.. just had the wheels on my truck done last week, the ditzier number was useless at the supply house and the body shop who ended up doing the wheels.. he ended up matching the color i wanted matched using the color map book.. the paint chip matched, then he sprayed the formula out and it was way off. he ended up adding a bunch of black to it in order to get the right color. said it looked like the formula was wrong..

guess it depends how much of a match ya want.

I would definitely start with the paint codes

Matching the 40 year old paint will get you a match to 40 year old faded paint.

Mike pm me your address as I have something I want to send you for your truck!

guess it depends if you want it correct or not.. those paint codes usually just don't match for some reason.
