sdsurf Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Anyone know where I can find paint codes for a "70 521? I think it was originally white. Quote Link to comment
dat521gatherer Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 i would also like to know. the 510 paint codes are listed on this site somewhat but i haven't seen any about the 521 codes yet. Quote Link to comment
DanielC Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 I believe the white paint code is 502 the Dragon Green paint code is 558 The "seafoam green" paint code paint code is 546 I do not remember than the factory name for white was This is a faded abused dragon green. The white, like most whites on a car, was not a true white. Sorry, I do not currently have a "seafoam green picture loaded in photobucket. Quote Link to comment
dat521gatherer Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 ok we have a start. it looks like this will need to be pieced this together. if your 521 is a original color and you have the sticker under the hood please post a pic and list the code number. both my stickers are gone but my trucks were originally light blue and the other was brown.

DanielC Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 I was lucky enough to have the original warranty and service booklet for the two trucks that did not have the paint code sticker still on them. The paint code is listed in the front cover of that booklet. I can also get the Dupont code for at least one of my trucks. Quote Link to comment
pope_face Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 I'm not sure if I have a sticker, so I'll take a look. Mine got a rattle-can job by the PO, but that's only on the outside... the interior, engine compartment, and a few other bits are red, which looks like it could be original. Does anyone know exactly where to find the sticker though? I don't want to spend half-an-hour looking for a sticker that should be in plain view. Quote Link to comment
DanielC Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 On the PL-521, it is on the radiator support, just to the left of the hood latch. Directions are from the perspective of the driver. Quote Link to comment
