Re: Canada Mopar Paint Code?

Yes, Canadian paint codes, and many times the colours themselves,
differed from the U.S.   Chrysler of Canada offered the same colours
on all their cars prior to 1965, with the exception of the 1960
Valiant.

For 1964 "H" in Canada was Spruce Metallic, the same colour as Medium
Turquoise Metallic, "K" on the U.S. Dodge and Dart.

1965 was the last year Chrysler of Canada had unique colours and
unique colour codes.  With the advent of the Autopact for the 1966
model year, Canadian-built Chrysler vehicles used the same colours as
in the U.S. and began using the U,S, style body tag.  Before WW II
Chrysler of Canada used some American GM colours.
