Three years ago someone told me how to find a color chart (color chips) for a 32 Chevy Coupe.
My restoration is almost ready to paint and I want to look again at my options. Yes the origional was black but I am leaning to a gray color with black fenders.
Where on the internet can I find the Duco Chip chart for 32.
Thank You

I nearly was the winner of a 32 color chart on eBay, but all charts before 1933 are nearly impossible to find/get. I got half a set of the 31 recently:

Here are the pictures: 1931 (duplicated from the net)
(They are not just the same as the ones on Bill Barker's pages)

You could try this one:
http://www.tcpglobal.com/autocolorlibrary/ant.html

You can have the name of the color and combinations, but not the
real (but faded) tone,as to my knowledge. They must be around, but who has them? The color charts from before 31 or was it 30 were painted on thin metal sheets and very expensive.

Does VCCA have a set of all years' color charts? CCON here has nearly all from 31 (except 32) up to 1983, and a lot of the commercials for the members to borrow.

Yes, I would appreciate some kind of color chips/chart for 1932, when you have the time. Send me a PM when you put it here, thanks.

I have the written description of combinations from 1926? to 1932.
