Another newbie question, anyone know where to find the paint codes for a 76 6.9? Mine looks like cypress green or silver green but I'm not sure which it actually is, thanks!

I think yours might be silver-green, same as my own car. Seems to be a very popular colour. Does this image below load correctly for you?



The colour code is the 3-digit number followed by either the letter G or the letter H. So, in the example above, the colour code is 861H. Here is a full listing of the colour codes and the years they were available: http://www.w116.org/tech/colors/
