Paint Code ???

Postby INEEDAWOODY » Wed Feb 10, 2010 2:15 am

I am trying to order matching touch up paint for my 1987 T&C Wagon it is a dark brown metallic... I found a website that custom mixes touch up but they require the original manufacturer paint code... I have checked and have been unable to locate it... any help would be appreciated...
or if anyone has a better source to get orig touch up ...

thanks Much

In many cases, on older cars, the paint code is embedded in the VIN. Take the VIN to the dealer and ask them to decipher it. I'll Google with mine, see what happens.
