Chris,
Matching by "code" from a different manufacturer is getting what they consider
'close'. The actual book quotes such things as 'lighter', 'darker', etc. to
indicate that it is not exact. The exact formula was based upon enamel and the
pigment set that went with that carrier, anyway. I really don't think you want
an
enamel paint job, or that the original solvent formulation is legally obtainable
or spray able, anyway.
PPG makes some excellent paints, as do others, and most reputable automotive
paint
stores have color matching spectrometers which chooses from their own blends of
pigments, in whatever paint system type you want.
If you do not have a sample of the original color to scan, you can get a can of
the original enamel from Tower Paint, reported previously, for about $10. You
spray half a few checkerboard target cards from the paint dealer, and he scans
it,
makes a sample in his paint, and paints the other half. Easy to determine match
in any light.
