Thanxs There sure is-it should be on the top of the radiator support, to the right of the hood latch. If not:Castle White-16Mild Yellow-36Vista Blue-41Vital Orange-43Twinkle Silver-54Regal Maroon-73Swell Green-77Brilliant Red-85Vibrant Green-86Regal Maroon was only available on the Evening Star 1400GF hardtop. Swell Green was for 4WD wagons only. Bear in mind that the paint probably won't match anyway-compare the paint under the door panels or carpet to see what it will actually look like when mixed, as opposed to the (probably faded) paint on the hood or roof. (No offense...but sun fading will do that to a 5-year-old car, and having a very expensive batch of alkyd enamel paint made off the paint code only to find it's unusable for touchup on your car without a complete respray would be a waste.)

kiwi subbie Posted November 13, 2006 Author Share Posted November 13, 2006 dose any one know what the colour is or colour code for the 1400 wheel rims? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WagonsOnly Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 What color rims, black or white? I think it'd be easier just to have the paint matched and do all four rims at the same time though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
