Paint Code

Post by Vintageman »

Hello,

Picked up a 1976 GT250A yesterday. Can't wait to try this 250 with it's extra transfer port and my D&G chnager add on eventually. It 's not too bad cosmetically and should clean up OK.

However it has some chips in paint.

I want to just touch it up to prevent rust and make it look a bit better.

It is the Orange ish Color. How do/Can I find the paint code and is this code something I can bring to an auto store shop and have some paint made. I also think there is a clear coat layer. Any clear works.

I would just mask and spray color then a dab or clear or just use a small brush? Not big areas, but a few

Well first question is can I figure out the paint code and get some made somewhere.
Thanks
