Drive510 Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 This may be a re-post (forgive the newb) but where can I find original Datsun paint codes? I'd like to change the color eventually but still keep it Datsun original. I'm leaning more and more towards silver grey with pearl. I know where to find the paint code on my 71' 4 door 510 but just wanted to know what are other colors the 510 came in for 1971. It doesn't even have to be a 510. If you know the code and how it looks like, be sure to give a little description. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I'm sure not only for me but for others as well. Thanks.

MicroMachinery Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 Go to dimequarterly.com . Down near the bottom on the left there is a "Body" section, in there is a template with paint codes. Quote Link to comment

DanielC Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Here are some of the Datsun paint codes I know for 1970 trucks. Dragon Green Datsun 558 Dupont 31025 This is the "not afraid of being Green" Green. Grey-Green Datsun 546 Dupont 43441 This is the "Seafoam" green. (off) White Datsun 502 do not know the Dupont code yet, I will soon. Like most whites, not really white. Some other colors 1982 Chevy truck Frost White. Dupont 521 (no kidding) This white is close to a true white. In bright sunlight, it will hurt your eyes to look at it. I do not know what it is used on, Dupont 99 This is black. Really black. Not very dark brown, BLACK. Quote Link to comment

Not very dark brown, BLACK. GM's fleet white, used for decades, was Dupont #817. AFAIK there *IS* no darker, purer black than their #99. Now a question regarding DimeQuarterly's paint code chart; does anybody know if it's accurate for ALL Datto models, and all years til...?? Quote Link to comment

I live in Orange county, not far from you. If you are going to be coming this way, I have, I think 6 or so pages of color code samples. Maybe they will help. I ordered a color from the paint store with what I thought was my color based on an online picture and code. What I ended up with was a different one. Seeing first hand helped me.
