Also, this has ZIP files that shows lots of actual paint codes and samples, you have to unzip this to look at it, I did and it is safe etc.

Re: Car paint question....
Hot damn!!!! I was hoping that was the name of it!!
We sent one of our Ram 1500s down to the bodyshop a few weeks ago and had it custom painted Hemi Orange (sorry, but I call it Chevy orange LOL) and it sold in no time. So now we are sending another 1500 down and having it painted sublime green, but on this one, it will have ghost flames (I will take credit for the flames) on the front quarter panels down to the front door, and having them kinda creep up on the hood just a little bit, and on the hood scoop. I already want this truck and its still white and sitting on the lot. I just have to figue out how to convince Sam he needs this truck instead and that an extra 75 a month in a car payment isnt that much more!!!

Re: Car paint question....
Well, now I dont know what color this truck is gonna be....the bodyshop guy told me sublime green...I still want it though, after I saw his work on the motorcycle at work with the flames, I really want this truck whenever its done....If I have a chance I will snap a couple of pics of the truck and post them if anybody wants to see it....
Marcus, the bodyshop guy, has also told me that if we ever needed a guitar painted, to let him know what color, and when/if hes ever painting a car that color he would give me a call and paint the guitar for me, for free!!! If I can get the flames outta him for free too...then I would be set..

Re: Car paint question....
Sorry so late but as promised.
If you notice Dodge Sublime and Plymouth Limelight poly are actually the same color. The paint code for both is J-5. I went ahead and included Chrysler LimeGreen Poly paint code F-4.
1970 Chrysler Paint
1970 Dodge Paint
1970 Plymouth Paint
Look at both Sublime and Limelight they are the same.

Sublime
Limelite
Close but Limelite is still a few shades briter. If you've ever been right next to 2 Surviver cars at the same time it's easier to tell. but with new Resto paint jobs sometimes they come out the same and then some painters just don't know the differenceI've fallen, Fallen through.

Re: Car paint question....
DRS hold the two paint chips side by side, they are the same color at least in my old book here. The bottom photo itself is darker. Making all the Plymouth colors seem darker than what they are.

As you can see both colors have the same code. A painter can only order the paint with the info he/she has.Comment
