Re: IML: Paint colors

[<wardle65@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have often wondered this myself and would like to know how many 58's are the same as mine.  My 58 Crown is Ermine and Champagne gold.  I would love to paint mine the same colour and bought paint chip charts from Ebay thinking the codes on them were mixing codes.  I took them to my PPG paint supplier and they said those codes do not mean anything to them and said I would have to get the proper mixing codes.  Where do you get the mixing codes from and what are the codes on the paint chip charts?.

Subject: IML: Paint colors

Does anyone know if records were kept of how many Imperials were painted a particular color in a given model year?  I have a '58 Crown Southampton 4 dr in Spring Green.  The paint is original and I love the color.  I haven't seen another Imperial that color green and am wondering how many other Spring Green Crowns rolled off the assemble line in 1958.
