I have been told that Eastwood don't make the charcoal grey anymore , I am waiting for a response from them. I have been told that Duplicolor has a silver HWP101 and a HWP102 graphite that's a good match. Anyone have any wisdom on this at all.

I can get Lordco to color match the aluminum from the ditzler #DDL-8568 but the Ditzler Wheel Cover Charcoal #DDL-32947 no match can be found.

Next time you go to a Pontiac show check out the shade of gray on Ralley II wheels. If there are ten cars there will be 10 slightly different shades and the owners will t ell you that the one they have is the correct one.

so I finished the rally II I tried every thing that was suggested and available and used the dupli color HWP101 argent silver and dupli color CBTY1557dark grey metalic I think they turned out pretty good I did a lot of testing for the dark colour and found that CBTY1557dark grey metalic was so very close up against a 50yr old faded paint

what color green is that? I have a '68 400 for 11 years and it looks like the same color (not original) and trying to narrow down what it is.
