I'm looking to paint the upper metal inner area of my doors and the rear inner metal area near the small window, in the original parchment color. Do they sell this paint in spray cans or do I need a code to have it made. Anyone on this?

http://thefirstgensite.com/library/paintchips/1968-pontiac-pg02.jpg Talk to your local auto paint shops. They can mix it in aerosol cans or pints.

Thank you so much Vikki.. I'll check with the local shops. Not sure if they do the aresol cans around here. Are there any paint shops you know of that would make it for me and I can have it shipped. Oh and is this 68 code the same for 67?

Ah...sorry, wrong link. Let me see if I can find the rest of the '67 codes.

See the link in my signature for these and much more.

Many automotive paint suppliers will mix and put into aerosol cans for a reasonable price if you don't have a sprayer. Call and ask! I use Painters Supply and Equipment, a PPG dealer. http://www.painters-supply.com/

Vikki i viewed your site and foud the 67 codes, but I'm not sure which is the code for parchment. There are two listed below one as creme and the other white, which one is the correct for the firebird?

I can't answer that, I don't know '67s well enough. Others here should, though.

I have a parchment interior on my '67. I got the paint in spray bombs from Classic Industries.

Their formula for '67 is different from '68 as is should be (more pearl in one of them, I can't remember so early this morning)

Salmon was the paint for metal or for plastic? I bought some for the plastic, but didn't see anything for metal surface. I think the upper metal part suppose to be the same parchment color as the interior. Is it ?. I would like to find it in spray bombs if possible. Let me know..

CI sells the acylic lacquer for hard plastic and metal surfaces as well as they vinyl dyes for soft interior parts in most of the correct interior colors.

Yes, the metal colors are supposed to match the door panel and seat material colors.

Ok,, well I'm still in search of the parchment paint code for 67 bird. CI does not have the paint for metal surface, I only see the spray for plastic. Can anyone else help on this. I found a company that will make the paint in spray can, but I still need the codes.
