Hey John, I forgot to post to this thread but replied PM to Dracko back in April last year. The custom mix wasnt something the PPG paint guru would share but he did give me some hints. Here is what I wrote to Dracko.
I stopped by today and checked with the guy and he said it was just Ford Pueblo Gold. I asked then for the paint code, he then looked it up and checked the mix he had on his sheet and said its not 100% to what he had so he must have tweaked it a bit. He said to most anyone looking at them side by side wouldnt be able to tell that much of a difference. He said Pueblo Gold had a little maroon and black mixed in that he didnt have. But basically its the same. Try a sample of that Pueblo maybe and see what you think.
Also, Ill add that in the match he gave me he recommended the matte finish and had the flexed and flat product. It went on great except the roof corners. I had to sand out the grit and redo but finally got it looking and feeling better to the touch. Here is a thread of the issue I had as I painted the interior.
