Color Scheme

Post by t_doody »

I just bought a 1972 Ford F100 with the 390 in it. It is a primer gray color right now, and under the hood and the interior paint looks like the sea pine green from the catalogs. I was wondering if there was any way to find out if the original color scheme was. I would like to get it painted as it came out of the factory. Anyway to figure that out?

The original paint code will be stamped on your VIN (warranty) tag, located on the rear of the driver's-side door. Get that code and check out this page:
