Modern paint code

Post by fireguyfire »

Getting ready to paint my 70 half ton which was originally Toredor red.
Is there a source where I can get a modern “recipe” for Toredor red so I can have some mixed up?

Any paint mixer can cross the Ditzler PPG number. 2227 or go to http://paintref.com. I find their stuff correct. Have the paint guy sample some for you. Some places will mix it ready to spray and some even can put it in spray cans. Most places wont do that any more, probably EPA or some reason. :2cents Craig

Another paint question; my truck originally had a white cab top and I will be putting back to white when I paint the truck.
Would the cab top have been a generic white, or the 1970 dodge truck code white? (8358)
