Hello Dan
Do you know if is at all possible to obtain the paint formulas for 1959 colors?
Thank you
Kevin
I know that Mark Evans gave me the code for copper, although I'm not sure where he got it. Do folks know if there is a list of modern equivalents?
Thanks
Dan

I'm sure painters can find all the information in their computers.
If he has the original paint chips there are codes on it, a good paint shop should get the modern paint codes for the old colors.
What 59 does he own?

Matthew asked the model of my Plymouth. It is a 1959 Suburban Custom, 9 seat. Paint code is XX, but I need the formula in order to match the paintwork.

Welcome here!!
All Iceberg white. Somebody must have it I guess as most of the cars are flame red with an iceberg white top.
