Paint codes for 82
« on: October 21, 2012, 12:51:44 pm »
Need to know what paint codes these are for this 82. Don't own the truck anymore or Id find out myself. Thought this site might be a good place to ask. Thanks in advance.

Is the sticker inside the glove box gone?

It would be Medium Blue 23 (PPG 3250) and Light Slate Poly 17 (PPG 3453).    Factory called it Midnight Blue and Silver Metallic.  The only darker color it could be would be Nordic Blue Metallic 30 and it isn't listed.

It won't be on the above link as it is not for Trucks, the trucks are here, same color as listed above:

You can look here for the names:
