Thanks for the help. That's what I need to start finding the origional
color. Does your information tell how to figure out the original color (if
possible) from the body tags? My car has two number plates in the driver
door jam. I know that many other car makers include paint color
information on the body tags, but I don't see anything obvious on this car.
