Does anyone have the paint codes used on the cars? Specifically the white? or should I say "off-white"

I could ask the guy that painted part of mine. He matched it pretty good.
I'll asked what he used.

I can tell you the "build sheet" for my car lists the paints as: Delstal-CR3 and Disler 3703 (these are suppose to be red and black). It also lists the clear coat as Disler DAV-75 Clear.
Not sure if this helps or not, but if they used that paint, maybe you can narrow down the white from what was available around that time from them?
hmm, Rottie, that code is a chrysler color CR3, Ditzler PPG code is DT3483, color name "flash red"
I thought all of the red cars were Ferrari red or something like that. Interesting indeed.
The closest "whites" I've been able to find are:
1. GM wa3967 cross references to Mopar DT1466 ( seems a little too dark )
2. GM wa8554 ( haven't found an actual sample of this to compare )
The main issue with "white" is there are about 50 shades of white
I'll check the parts list I have at home, maybe they have paints listed in there. They have nuts and bolts listed, why not paint? Long shot, but worth a try.
I had forgotten about the parts list having paint. Now that you remind me, I have seen some on the list.
I'll have to cross reference what I find. Some of the parts aren't for the Consulier so...we'll see. Thanks
oh the plot thickens.. there are at least 2 whites listed on the parts list so far:
DAR2185 cross references to -- GM code 521 "White" or "Corporate white" wa5111 , Chrysler code DT1084
DAR81642 gives me nothing, but DAR8164 is "Parchment White" ( studebaker )
PPG Ditzler 4447 only cross references to a Chrysler color "radiant red" DT3522 ( burgundy ) but not until 1992

I asked the guy that touched up mine. He used Toyota "040" white...its real close.
