Paint Color ID, Help??
 

Ok guys I just got a 76 C20 that I will be using the cab on my short bed step side. I want to paint it the original color because it has family history (wife's family)

Anyway can anyone help me figure out what paint color this is. I know its original paint. The interior and door jambs are Perfect, so I only want to shoot color on the exterior. I have enclosed two pics one of the outside the other of the interior. I have the paint chips on line but the colors don’t look quite right. I looked for the options tag in the glove box but it is gone.

Thanks for your help I am swapping cabs this weekend ands will be starting body work very soon.

here is the link to the paint chips for this year truck

I tried to find this out for my truck and had no luck, however my painter scanned the original paint and came up with a match.

It looks like 2773 Med Greystone, but a paint shop should be able to match it perfectly.

In my 1976 Chevy Truck brochure the color that looks closest to your truck is called Moss Gold.

OK the wife has come to a conclusion we believe it is 2776 Medium Gold Poly.

We had this issue on a non chevy vehicle one time and were able to take the vin number to the buic dealer and get a paint code for it, i have found though that the chevy dealers offer little support for our trucks here in oklahoma though, may be worth a shot, who knows. gl
