Larry,

saw your posting on the MGB digest.  You wrote:

...Bill said the Dbc 33728 Gray Met. looks pretty close


What is Dbc? a brand?  If I go to a local auto paint place, will they
understand this code?

======================================

Sorry, John.  Dbc stands for Deltron base coat (Deltron is a PPG product) 
and 33728 is the color that Bill at Tower Paint thinks most closely matches 
my LE wheels.

Now, this color is based on my 28 year old wheels that are in need of 
restoration.  Kelvin, didn't you say you had some new LE wheels made that 
very closely matched a well-preserved LE?  Do you suppose you could get a 
paint color code from those for us?
