Don't know or sure but my .02 is I 1st did my duster in DuPont chroma base in high school. I then burned front half up with a fire and redid it like a year later in PPG DBC basecoat. The two were not the same. DuPont was lighter and PPG was more violet. Now granted the DuPont was shot over a gray sealer while the PPG was shot over K36 as a sealer that was tinted violet. That will make a difference and personally I Liked the PPG better.

original color of my car was not as chromatic as other c7 colors I've seen but not as blan either. then again we're trying to match a single stage metallic with base/clear.not gonna happen.

i dont know if this will help but here is a real time capsule. This was my dads 70 chall he purchased while overseas in vietnam thru the chrysler armed forces rep. The picture was taken in 70-73 range with original paint on it. this photo was taken with one of the better films available then. Kodachrome. my dad was a very good photographer and it looks like it was taken yesterday. LOL..
Not to steal the thread but to bolster your claim, Kodachrome is considered an archival quality film. Unlike the E-4 and E-6 process Ektachrome, Fujichrome and Agfa slide films, Kodachrome's dyes do not shift with time. If stored in darkness, the slides have a calculated 185 year span before some of the yellow starts to go away. The only thing better would be a picture made by a modern digital camera transported in a time machine to 1970 to retake the picture. Craig Craig
