Colour identification

WPR678B · Jan 27th, 2011, 17:37

Does anyone know what colour the code 42 stands for? Attached is an image of the plate on my 1970 145 and i will need to get some paint mixed soon and it would be handy to go armed with as much information as possible!!
Many thanks in advance!

If you go to any decent paint shop and tell them its a code for an early 70's Volvo then they'll be able to sort it for you. Did that for my 67 Amazon just with the two digit code and they found it srtaight away.

The first place i tried was obviously not a decent paint shop as they couldn't help unless i took in a panel for colour matching, but the next i tried had all the info required!
