Re: Saddle color trucks

I'm going to pull this one to the top as I am trying to match a formula to the original saddle color of Jon's beautiful original 66 K20. I have the PPG's crossover in base clear and it appears to be much like the driftwood colors of some of these nice looking trucks above. I have a pair of factor take off saddle mirror arms to try and match from but if anyone has a formula captured from a color shot of an original 66 Chevy truck saddle paint sample I would like to hear about it. The painter and I were just discussing this morning about shooting and blending and tinting the sample on the underside floor of the truck before doing the firewall or wheels.
