|
|
I've been trying to find a matching color touch up for my tx ... its kinda a red.. candy apple color, however when i look at the color matching books in auto centers they dont have a red for 1976???
and the paint number of the id tag doesnt match any numbers in the book.? Any suggestions? |

Go see a paint shop with the paint code and they should match it up 4 you. |

better yet go to a paint shop with an exact example of the paint ie. take in the fuel cover, cos if its original paint it will be heaps faded from when it rolled out of the factory and if its been resprayed the paint code will be wrong anyway |
